We are seeking a mathematics and visual arts teacher who can handle mathematics in 1-2 of the school’s lovely classes, and participate in our two weekly creativity blocks with visual arts. Other teaching competencies will be tried out depending on the subject.

Room to grow with the team

As a school, we are characterized by great commitment, a professional and team-based approach to teaching, and a strong sense of community. In Vejrup Børneby no one stands alone. There is room to grow and generally large degrees of freedom for development and expression.

Facts

Vejrup Børneby has 110 pupils distributed across one stream from 0th – 6th grade and offers fantastic framework for teaching with smaller classes (15 students on average). The school is very well maintained, well equipped, tidy and clean with plenty of space and good facilities indoors and outdoors. We have a large hall, multi-purpose room, football fields, a bouncy cushion, pump track, school garden, outdoor workshop, large playgrounds and generally a lot of space for exploration indoors.

Great freedom, community and professional learning

Community

We operate a community-oriented school, and we are particularly focused on students’ safety and participation in the community. Community is not a cliché at Vejrup Børneby, but the starting point in our value base, and we work systematically with community throughout the children’s village.

Practical, project-oriented and interdisciplinary focus

We have subjects where classic subjects fuse in new ways, and on Fridays the classes work together in phases with a cross-disciplinary, community- and project-oriented focus.

Safety

We believe that having consistently known adults in the classes makes students feel safer, and we plan to have as few different adults in the classes as possible.

Reading

We are very focused on reading, with a prioritized strategy based on the latest knowledge and research in the field.

We are very diligent about presenting the children’s village on Facebook, so feel free to check it here: https://www.facebook.com/vejrupborneby
