Teacher for Møllehuset – a municipal milieu-therapeutic school-treatment program

Møllebakkeskolen is seeking a teacher to supplement our team of environmental therapists in Møllehuset, which also consists of teachers, pedagogues and pedagogical assistants. You should have teaching experience from either public school or special school. We are looking for a person who thrives in a daily life that can be changeable and that does not always go as planned.

We are looking for the right person for our already strong teaching team, so that our students in Møllehuset receive instruction in as many parts of the primary school subject package as possible. We are seeking a teacher who thrives in interdisciplinary collaboration, as our various disciplines work very closely together in daily life.

Møllehuset is a school-treatment offering in a environment-therapeutic organization, which is based on a psychodynamic foundation. The environment-therapeutic structures and relationships are planned so that the pupils experience uniformity, clarity and predictability, so that it is possible to gain new experiences that form the basis for personal, social and academic learning/development in the school.

Møllehuset is targeted at pupils from year 0 up to and including year 9. The learning environment is adapted to the group of pupils admitted to the offering, taking into account each individual's needs for stimulation, diagnoses and issues. At present, we have 23 children in our school-treatment offering.

There are currently 12 environmental therapists attached to Møllehuset. The environmental therapists are central throughout the children’s daily lives. All staff at Møllehuset are offered relevant education and training, together with the municipality’s other environment-therapeutic offerings. Møllehuset also has an attached environmental-therapeutic psychologist who prepares treatment plans for the individual child. Likewise, Møllehuset is supervised continuously.

We need YOU , who would like to dedicate their working life to giving treatment-needing children an opportunity to develop themselves, both academically, personally and socially.

The core tasks of the position are to be responsible for subject-specific learning pathways, participate in and support the learning offered to the pupils from their arrival at Møllehuset until they go home. Møllehuset is the framework for treatment that happens in all aspects throughout the day. You must be able to provide professional care, and be aware of what it means to work with treatment-needing pupils who need security and predictability. You will, among other things, be part of the written work in connection with the development and action plans, which are a central element in working with the pupils.

You must be open and able to give and receive professional sparring together with your close team in Møllehuset, for the benefit of the individual pupil. You will become part of a small team in Møllehuset and a larger team at Møllebakkeskolen.

We expect to meet a skilled teacher who loves working with children in vulnerable positions, is exemplary in communicating with them, their parents/home and other surroundings.
