Do you want to be part of building an accessible learning environment where every student gets the key to strong and independent language skills? At Nygårdsskolan, your special education expertise becomes a decisive driving force that makes a difference for our students every day. Welcome! Your Responsibilities As a special education teacher in language, writing, and reading development at Nygårdsskolan, you are responsible for special education work and supporting students in need of specific assistance in Swedish for grades F-6. In your work, you are expected to help identify and assess students' support needs and ensure high quality in diagnostic assessments and current support. You have an important task in supporting students at risk of not meeting nationally established goals, which you do through both classroom instruction and individual instruction. Your assignment is multifaceted and includes the following: You collaborate closely with classroom teachers around individual students' needs for accommodations.

At Nygårdsskolan, we use a two-teacher system (co-teaching) in the lower grades (F-3). Here you support teachers in grouping, organizing, and creating good conditions for special education directly in the learning environment, as well as help develop materials and research-based methods. Some direct work with students also occurs in these grade levels. In the intermediate grades (4-6), you work more directly with students and with assessments to ensure goal achievement throughout. You develop action plans and ensure that the working methods used are research-based and evaluable to the greatest extent possible. Your Workplace Nygårdsskolan is an F-6 school with approximately 300 students today, where most have multicultural backgrounds.

We offer aftercare for F-3 and open recreation activities for grades 4-6. The school has a staffed school library, a well-functioning student support team, and established environmental initiatives. We believe that high quality is achieved through active values-based work, good cooperation with parents/guardians, and ensuring that all staff members are involved in taking initiative for both influencing and analyzing the operations.
