Environmental therapist/environmental worker in secondary school

Ringstabekk School - We will face the future with boldness and joy.
Since its inception in 1972, Ringstabekk School has been committed to being a learning organization in constant development. Interdisciplinary, problem-based working methods such as project work, storyline, the PBL method, simulations and entrepreneurship are central to our everyday lives.
The teachers are organized in interdisciplinary teams that collaborate closely on the students' social and academic development in a holistic perspective. A teaching team of 4-5 teachers is responsible for the education of a large class of 60-75 students. The school year is divided into 6 periods, where each of the periods has an overall interdisciplinary theme.
Our teachers have a high degree of pedagogical and didactic awareness, a desire to develop themselves together with colleagues and a big heart for all types of students.
For more information about the school, see the school's website: www.ringstabekk.net
As support for teachers and students, we also have a school assistant, social worker, counselor, librarian and cafeteria worker, all of whom are important parts of the adult team around the students. We are now looking to expand this team with a confident adult who can work as an environmental worker/therapist.
We are looking for someone who can provide safe and good support both to students with special needs for follow-up and to entire classes/groups of students, both in and outside the classroom. You are proactive and can contribute to a safe and good school environment throughout the school in close collaboration with the rest of the team around the students. The tasks may vary throughout the year.
The position size is negotiable, and we are open to 70-100%, but we want a colleague who can work most of the time we have students at school, 5 days a week. The position is initially a commitment for the school year. The school year starts with planning days from August 11th and the students will arrive at school on August 17th, and we hope to have our new colleague in place from the start.
