Skt. Klemensskolen seeks educator for school/after-school care

We are seeking a relationship-oriented, professionally grounded pedagogue for a permanent 37-hour position.

About us

Skt. Klemensskolen is a two-track school with approx. 470 students and 55 staff. In addition to the general part, we have three OBS classes for referred children. The school is located on the outskirts of Odense with good outdoor areas.

We are an engaged staff group with high expectations of ourselves and each other. Collaboration is an important part of our culture. We work closely in professional learning communities to create the best conditions for the children’s learning, well-being and development – both in school and SFO. We place great emphasis on a close and respectful collaboration with the parents, based on dialogue and mutual trust.

About the job

In the SFO we actively work with Odense Municipality’s “Vision for leisure-time pedagogy”.

We work in workshops, where we take the children’s interests as a starting point and make room for movement, outdoor life and creativity as a natural part of everyday life. As a pedagogue with us, you will be an active participant in this process, where we expect you to contribute with both initiative and pedagogical insight.

Our SFO is physically located in two places at the school, with the children from 0.-2. grade together and the children from 3. and 4. grade together in SFO2.

In the school part you will be an important part of the year group team and the cross-professional collaboration around the children. You contribute with a pedagogical perspective on the children’s well-being, participation opportunities and development and work closely with the teachers to create inclusive learning environments. As a pedagogue you support both the individual pupil and the community, and you help plan, implement and evaluate teaching-related activities.

We emphasize that the pedagogues’ competencies are actively brought into play in the school day, so that there is coherence between the children’s learning, well-being and development across school and SFO.

In the 2026/27 school year, Skt. Klemensskolen is a pilot school in Odense Municipality’s strategy Strong Child Communities . This means that we work purposefully to create participation opportunities for more children in the general communities and to develop learning environments where diversity is seen as a strength. As a pedagogue you will have a central role in this work through your focus on the children’s perspectives, relationships and active participation in both teaching and leisure activities.

We expect you to be curious about development work and to want to contribute to translating the visions of strong communities into concrete pedagogical practice.

Working hours are between 06:30 and 17:00 with the hours distributed during the school day and the SFO time. There are also a small number of evening meetings.

The position is currently attached to 1st grade but moves through the years from Spring SFO to up to 3rd grade.
