Would you like to help shape the future of education at IES Johanneberg?
We are currently seeking a support teacher in physical education for grades 6-9. Here at IES Johanneberg, you will be part of an international and safe learning environment where all students are at the center and receive the best conditions for their lifelong learning.
About us
Internationella Engelska Skolan has positively impacted its students' development for over 30 years. We are convinced that this successful outcome stems from our strong ethos, where engaged and present leaders create an environment where everyone strives toward common goals. With us, teachers can focus on what matters most – teaching and learning. Students are always at the center, and all students are your students. We believe in values as the foundation for success, and collaboration is an integral part of our way of working.
What does the position entail?
The position is a fixed-term full-time employment starting in January 2026 until June 2026. As part of our dedicated work team and subject team, you will collaborate with your colleagues in physical education to truly make a difference in students' development. Our strong belief in students' potential permeates our teaching, and together with your colleagues, you will create a safe, structured, and developmental learning environment where students have the opportunity to be both challenged and stimulated.
In this role, you will work closely with both teaching colleagues and support educators in a close collaboration, where our shared mission is to lead and support students in their social and academic development. You will also be responsible for mentoring a class, which gives you the opportunity to build long-term relationships and contribute to a positive school day.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for someone with a teaching degree in physical education and a Swedish teaching license. You are an educator with a good understanding and ability to implement the curriculum's goals in your daily work. You are flexible, structured, well-prepared, and possess clear leadership that allows you to stand strong in your student groups and create a positive learning environment.
For us, collaboration is a key factor for success, and we are therefore looking for someone who recognizes the importance of collegial learning, clear routines, and shared approaches. You are also an educator who is curious and innovative – as we welcome students in grades 4 and 5 for the 26/27 school year, we are shaping the future learning environment together.
You are open, communicate in a direct and humble manner, and build trusting relationships with students, guardians, and colleagues. Since the instruction in physical education is conducted in Swedish but colleagues communicate in both Swedish and English, you need to be fluent in both languages, spoken and written.
Why IES Johanneberg?
- An international and positive work climate where collaboration and development are central.
- The opportunity to help shape an exciting new phase in the school's history.
- A safe, structured, and developmental learning environment for both students and educators.
- A dedicated and supportive work team where you can contribute to students' lifelong learning. Welcome to submit your application!
