Övertorneå Kommune's schools are among the best in the country according to surveys, where we offer education of the highest quality—from preschool to adult education. One of the explanations highlighted is small classes with high teacher density and experienced teachers, which enables more individualized attention for each student. We place great emphasis on IT skills among both students and staff, where computers/iPads are used as teaching benefits from this. We have high expectations for both students and staff.

Job Responsibilities: You will be part of our team at Central Child and Student Health Services. Child and Student Health Services work to ensure that all children in preschool and students in primary and secondary school feel well at school and to promote individual learning.
