BACKGROUND Järva Gymnasium is a modern, innovative, and inclusive high school that opened its doors in the fall of 2024 in the heart of Tensta, in the wonderful facilities of the former Tensta Gymnasium. We have an ambitious goal to create a school where 100% of students graduate, are well-prepared for higher education, and equipped for the future, with the ability to explore and realize their own ambitions. Järva stands out through its rich diversity, which we regard as one of our most valuable assets. We are seeking a teacher who appreciates this diversity and views it as a foundation for supporting each student's unique ability to dream, learn, develop, and grow without limitations. In line with our vision, we strive to offer a safe and welcoming environment where every individual has the opportunity to flourish and achieve their goals, thereby reaching their full potential. Järva Gymnasium is foundation-owned and mission-driven. The foundation's purpose is to contribute to greater equality through education. The foundation is non-profit, and politically and religiously independent. Since we are still in an establishment phase, you should be flexible and able to take on various roles in the school. You understand the importance of strong relationships, high expectations, and collaborative learning.

Through your professionalism, stability, and leadership, you create a positive work environment with a collegial spirit that strengthens both you and your colleagues. - You thrive as the adult and responsible role model, working proactively, preventatively, and developmentally. It is important to you to support students and build strong relationships, and you also see their parents as resources to enrich school activities with a focus on student well-being, goal achievement, social and academic development.
