About this role
– A Job with Room for Responsibility and Community
Are you ready to lay the foundation for lifelong learning? We are now seeking a certified preschool teacher for Aspen Preschool in Aspås. Apply and get the chance to make a real difference.
Welcome to Us!
Aspen Preschool is located in the scenic Aspås and has three departments with age-grouped classes. We are looking for a preschool teacher who wants to create exploratory, supportive, and developmental learning environments. We seek a colleague who, together with other educators, wants to design an operation that focuses on children and where systematic quality work is the common thread for identifying children's learning.
The Child and Education Administration has approximately 800 employees. The administration's operations span the entire municipality and include preschool, primary school F-9, adapted primary school, after-school care, catering and cleaning, mother tongue instruction, and library services.
A Day as a Preschool Teacher at Aspen Preschool
Working at Aspen Preschool means being an important adult in preschool children's lives, where the security perspective and an inclusive approach go hand in hand with meeting children's needs and interests.
Here, you'll have the opportunity to contribute your ideas, grow professionally with colleagues, and make a difference in children's daily lives.
In your role as a preschool teacher, you are responsible, together with your team, for planning and conducting activities that meet each child's individual needs. Documentation is a crucial part of our daily reflections and is the hub of systematic quality work, which makes learning visible, develops, and moves the operation forward.
In Krokom Municipality, we start from children's interests, needs, and experiences. You plan learning processes and, with a formative approach, implement, follow up, and evaluate instruction, anchored in the curriculum. Children's learning is made visible through digital pedagogical documentation. In addition to systematic quality work, preventive and promoting child health work is conducted in collaboration with our child health teams, where our special education teacher is a key component. Operations are conducted so that learning and materials are adapted and varied according to children's interests, conditions, and needs, ensuring that care, nurturing, and learning form a whole.
Krokom Municipality's units have a common systematic work environment approach based on the municipal core values: Welcoming, Courageous, Close, and Reliable.
All preschools in Krokom Municipality work with five common operational goals. As support in your daily work, you'll have close collaboration with colleagues, special education teachers, pedagogical developers, and the principal. As a newly graduated preschool teacher, there's an opportunity to join a preschool network with other new preschool teachers in the municipality and our pedagogical developer.
If you want to continue developing in your role as a preschool teacher, this is the municipality that makes room for growth.
Your Competence
We are seeking a certified preschool teacher who is thoroughly familiar with national preschool governing documents. As an individual, you contribute to a good work environment by treating others with respect and having the ability to share your positive energy.
Preschool work is dynamic and requires the ability to see the big picture to find the best solution for all involved. You are a confident leader with a child-centered focus and solution-oriented approach.
Experience with clarifying pedagogy and low-affective approach is meritorious. We value the ability to create safe and inclusive environments in interaction with children. You need to be didactically skilled with the child's development as your driving force.
You have a good ability to communicate, reflect, take responsibility, and collaborate, and you see the preschool as a cohesive unit working with and for children. We seek someone with a strong ability to create and maintain good relationships with both children and guardians.
