About this role
Are you looking for a meaningful role where you can truly make a difference?
We are currently seeking more dedicated employees who want to help shape the future of Värnamo. With us, you will work with a focus on people and create a workday that is valuable, both for you and for our citizens.
**Description**
The Western School Area consists of the junior high school grades 7-9 in Forsheda, as well as the primary and middle schools Hanahöjskolan, Hånger School, Bredaryd School, and Kärda School, along with their associated after-school programs.
We work collaboratively on recruiting substitutes in the area and now need to expand our staffing with new teacher substitutes who can step in and support our students during short-term absences, both in school and after school.
**Responsibilities**
We are now looking for several teacher substitutes to strengthen our school area. We offer a varied job where you can develop and make a difference for our students.
As a substitute within the school and after-school program, you need to be comfortable standing in front of a group of children to lead and teach. You build trust, can take charge in the classroom, and create relationships with students and colleagues. You should be a good adult role model in both actions and language, act judiciously, and follow the school's rules. Your task is to follow the teacher's planning during the school day or care period.
**Qualifications**
We are looking for someone who is responsible, independent, flexible, and accommodating. You can quickly adapt when needs change. We prefer that you have experience in educational work or have training in the field. You must have a good command of Swedish in speaking, writing, and reading comprehension, as you will have daily contact with students and colleagues. Since not all schools are accessible by public transport, a valid driver's license (B) and access to a personal vehicle are required. We place great importance on personal suitability.
We would like you to submit your application with a personal letter, CV, and references.
**Conditions**
We work with ongoing selection and interviews. The position will be filled subject to the necessary decisions being made.
