Specialised teacher in adapted primary school, temporary position

Job location, Skåne County - Sweden

Maria Park School's adapted primary school is looking for specialised teachers who want to make a difference for our younger students during the studies of regular staff.

About the workplace
Helsingborg City Schools is a resourceful and value-driven organisation. As an employee, you will be an important part of our shared vision to create the best school for every child and student.

Maria Parkskolan is an F-9 school in northern Helsingborg. The school has a total of around 1000 pupils. Our school consists of three school buildings in the Mariastaden area, where two of the school buildings are located in the park and one of the school buildings is located on Kullavägen. There is also an adapted primary school on Kullavägen. The beach and the sea are within easy walking distance, as is the vibrant city.

Maria Parkskolan's adapted primary school has just under 60 pupils.

We work to create a school where all pupils feel happy and safe. We create the small contexts in the big school where students will be strengthened in their self-confidence to show mutual respect for others. Our school will be an inclusive and inspiring place where all students feel welcome and respected. All pupils will achieve to the best of their ability. Our pupils will be equipped with the skills and knowledge they need for life. The starting point is zero tolerance and a promotional and preventive approach to victimisation. All adults should always react against violence and abusive behaviour.

To support your teaching, you will collaborate with the teaching assistants in the class/group. You will belong to a team where we see you as an important part of a whole that works for all students to achieve their goals. You will take an active part in the school's development work and work well with colleagues.
