About the job

Are you our new teacher or educator for one of our special offerings at Kokkedal School?

Perhaps you are a power team who together are seeking new challenges?

Do you value a good collegial atmosphere with room for influence, development and a balance between work and private life?

Are you passionate about working with students who are challenged in areas such as attention? And would you like to help develop a strong school offering that develops the students academically, socially and personally?

Are you curious about low arousal and neuroaffective developmental psychology? And how to work with emotion regulation in a school context?

YES, YES, YES, YES, YES!? We are the perfect school for you who wish to challenge your own practice, want to further develop and be part of a academically strong team and whose motivation lies in giving children the best opportunities in school and in life!

K-class at Kokkedal School

At Kokkedal School we started in August 2023 a new special offer (the K-class). As we get more children, we need to expand the staff further. Currently we have children aged 3–8 years.

In the team you will be responsible for teaching the group of students, all of whom need a clear structure and calm nervous systems around them to achieve the best possible schooling. The students are not necessarily diagnosed, but generally have difficulties with attention, may also be on the autism spectrum, and are typically gifted, which means that they in principle have the opportunity for a full leaving exam from public school.

We also have another special class series for students with general learning difficulties, which has a collegial community with the K-class staff.

Your profile

You are strong in relationships and collaboration, you have a positive and bright outlook on life and you are educated as a teacher or educator. We need skilled teachers with all major subjects, and are therefore open to different combinations.

Perhaps you are a power team that works well together and therefore as a team seeks new paths?

We are looking for you/you all as

  • Capable of managing the academic and social development of the students
  • Able to work from a clear special pedagogical approach
  • Able to create a structured everyday
  • Experience with the target group is an advantage, but not a requirement
  • Engaged, active and a natural role model
  • Curious about and focused on supporting and developing strong communities among both children and adults at the school
  • Passionate about a school that creates participation opportunities for all children

You will experience

  • becoming part of our skilled and ambitious special pedagogical environment.
  • a mix of new and experienced special educational colleagues, all ready to spar and share experiences in cooperation with our practice supervisor.
  • regular supervision, on the academic and personal challenges that may arise
  • mentoring for new employees
  • colleagues who prioritize wellbeing and academic excellence, but also place value on social interaction, humor and community

Flexible, meaningful daily life

In daily work with the students you must have a good sense of where each student is and whether there is a need to adjust the approach to the student and the teaching. It requires that you can both accommodate the individual student and get the group to function together.

The work includes student action plans and collaboration with parents, PPR, the school’s general classes and management, as well as supervision both individually and in the class team.

Flexible school

At Kokkedal School we work in self-managing teams, where teaching and the timetable are organized so there is room for academic deepening and to organize the school day according to the students’ needs. The K-class should be part of the large and flexible school and plan activities and teaching as close as possible to the general school.

Students arrive at 08:15.

Kokkedal School – the school of community

At Kokkedal School we have good physical premises with large and spacious classrooms, well-equipped subject rooms and inviting green areas with abundant opportunities for activity. We are in the process of a major renovation of the school as part of the Frederiknsborg Municipality’s project “Future of the Folkeskole” to ensure that our learning environments are designed for 21st century learning, which means that we are about to open the next part of the renovation, our ‘Innovatek’.

We have about 800 students from 0th to 9th grade distributed over 3–4 tracks. In our special classes for children with learning difficulties there are 33 students distributed across 5 classes. Our K-classes currently accommodate 18 students distributed across 3 classes.

Creative and innovative school

Our learning is meaningful, progressive and real-world oriented – we are a creative and evidence-based school full of initiative and movement. We work, among other things, with talent groups based on interest and preferably interdisciplinary.

We will, through a dedicated and professionally competent staff – who work progressively from our well-defined values: Responsibility, Respect, Engagement and Professionalism – maintain a high professional level with associated good results.
