About Internationella Engelska Skolan Älvsjö
Internationella Engelska Skolan (IES) Älvsjö is a bilingual primary school with an international atmosphere where students and staff from many different parts of the world meet. The school has approximately 700 students in grades 4–9 and around 70 staff members.
We follow the Swedish curriculum (Lgr22), where up to half of the instruction is conducted in English. Our operations are built on high academic ambitions, clear expectations, and a strong belief that safety and study peace are the foundation for learning. We want to give every student the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to succeed – both in school and in the future.
About the Position
As a substitute teacher with us, you get varied and developmental work. Depending on the day's needs, you can, among other things:
- Teach and lead lessons in various theoretical and practical subjects for students in grades 4–9 based on the regular teacher's planning.
- Supervise lunch and recess and contribute to a safe and positive school environment.

- You are responsible, flexible, organized, and punctual.
- You work well collaboratively and build good relationships with both students and colleagues.
- You have a natural ability to lead groups and be a safe, clear adult role model.
