You will identify and investigate students' needs, analyze which interventions best support their development, develop and follow up on additional adaptations and action plans, and systematically and professionally document your work. You'll provide advice and support to educators and after-school staff on how to adapt instruction and remove learning obstacles.
Through classroom observations, you'll offer concrete suggestions that enhance teaching quality and inclusion.

We're seeking candidates with a special education degree, special education teacher certification, or a teaching license with special education competence. You have experience working in primary school and are confident in supporting and guiding colleagues in pedagogical work. You have previously conducted assessments and investigations, and developed and followed up on action plans and other documentation regarding students' needs and development.
You have good IT skills and use digital tools naturally in your work. We also value your ability to express yourself well in Swedish, both verbally and in writing, as clear communication is a crucial part of the assignment.
