About Skrillingeskolen

Skrillingeskolen is a municipal public school for students with general learning difficulties. Our offering is a holistic package with a school part that starts from the individual student, and a special educational leisure time provision. Instruction follows the Danish Public School Act with reference to the special education regulations. All students are admitted to the school.

The school currently has 86 students from 0–10th grade and about 40 children in the after-school program (SFO). Our staff comprises around 70 employees – teachers, pedagogues, assistants, physiotherapists and occupational therapists, speech and hearing teachers, and administrative staff.

Many of our students have, in addition to general learning difficulties, other challenges, such as autism spectrum disorders (ASD), ADHD or similar behavioral disorders, and possibly multiple disabilities. At the school we use special educational knowledge and methods across the different areas in relation to pedagogical practice. There is also emphasis on communication, structure, visualization and recognizability depending on the individual child’s development level.

When employed at Skrillingeskolen, one is employed for the entire school. The current position is on the school’s ASD track in a lower primary/middle-grade class.

Our task and approach

At Skrillingeskolen we work from the ambition that all students shall become as skilled as they can be.
