Teacher, Wood / Metal

Do you want to work in an international environment with a clear pedagogical policy? We are looking for a dedicated wood and metalwork teacher for grades 4-9 with teaching experience in these grade levels. The responsibilities include typical teacher tasks such as planning, teaching, grading, and follow-up. Mentorship for 16 students is also included if the position is over 75%. The woodwork position is part-time, 25-40% and permanent for those with teaching credentials. It can be combined with Textile Crafts and/or Home Economics to expand the position. At our school, the focus is on learning and a calm environment where both students and staff follow the school's routines and rules. A pleasant atmosphere and a good working climate are key words behind our success and form the basis for creating a common thread that guides and supports our students through their schooling and helps them achieve their goals. As a person, you are expected to be flexible, a dedicated team player with a positive attitude towards your subject. Creativity and the willingness to go the extra mile for your students and colleagues are important qualities. You possess the tools to create a conducive learning environment where your clear leadership and teaching style are keys to your students' success. You can adapt your teaching to reach different students and collaborate with our student welfare team and special educators to include students with special needs. Ongoing, clear feedback to students and guardians is a necessity and a natural part of your teaching where you share information about progress and areas for development and improvement. The language of instruction for crafts is Swedish and/or English, and proficiency in English is a requirement as many staff members are English speakers. Crafts are taught in half classes in a fully equipped craft room. Interviews are conducted on an ongoing basis, so do not wait to apply. The position starts on August 10, 2026.
