About the Swedish Prison and Probation Service
The Swedish Prison and Probation Service is growing – we are building new facilities, renovating, and expanding, and we are now looking for more employees. Our most important goal is to reduce recidivism – to break the vicious cycle. When we succeed, society becomes safer and more secure for everyone. We are the authority responsible for prisons, probation services, remand facilities, and prisoner transport.
Learning Center is a national organization where the Adult Education section provides education for clients of the Swedish Prison and Probation Service. At each prison in the country and certain remand facilities, there are one or more learning centers where teachers provide instruction at upper secondary and upper secondary school levels, equivalent to municipal adult education, as well as Swedish language education for immigrants. Adult education is nationally coordinated and organized so that studies function regardless of which facility a client is placed in and even if they are transferred during their studies.
Job Description
Clients who need education can apply or be referred to apply for adult education. Teaching is individualized and takes place at the Learning Center. As a teacher within the Swedish Prison and Probation Service, you work in three functions. You teach your students at the Åby facility in the learning center's facilities, and you will also support students as a pedagogical mentor for those who have their subject teacher online through the agency. In addition, you also teach students online who are studying at other facilities, but all work takes place on-site at the facility. This means that in your role you have continuous contact and collaboration with teachers and colleagues throughout the country.
Qualifications
In your role as a teacher, you are a skilled educator with the desire and ability to motivate, inspire, and lead students to achieve their goals. You are clear and engaged in your work and have strong ability to create structure and systematicity. Work is conducted both independently and in close collaboration with colleagues, which is why good collaboration and initiative skills are important traits, as well as the ability to work independently.
For us, it is important that you share the Swedish Prison and Probation Service's fundamental values of a humane view of humanity, respect for the individual, and belief in people's desire and ability to develop. You are also aware of and understand how background, culture, and group belonging affect you and others. Furthermore, you are expected to contribute through your approach to ensuring that everyone is treated equitably. We place great emphasis on personal suitability.
We are looking for someone who has:
Upper secondary school teacher degree and teacher certification with subject authorization in one or more of the following subjects: Business Economics, Natural Science, Mathematics preferably in combination with chemistry/physics.
