Tasks
The pupils in the class have a visual impairment, are blind and/or on the autism spectrum. They plan age-appropriate lessons according to Curriculum 21 and carry them out. You receive support in the lessons from a pedagogical staff member as well as through close collaboration within the Cycle 3 team. In particular, you are responsible for the subjects NMG, German and IVE. Individual educational and support plans, which you create, serve as the basis for your teaching. In addition, you supervise the educational team, ensure coordination work and maintain contact with the guardians and external specialist agencies. Administrative tasks such as maintaining pupil files and preparing reports are also part of your duties. Furthermore, you conduct progress discussions, participate in working groups and cross-class projects, and help organise special weeks.
Requirements
You hold an EDK-recognised diploma in school special education, a primary or secondary teaching certificate, or are studying for a Bachelor in Primary Education or a Master in School Special Education. Ideally, you already have experience teaching pupils in Cycle 3 on the autism spectrum or visually impaired children. You approach challenges, such as those arising from pupils on the autism spectrum (AS) and with visual impairments, with the necessary professionalism and calm. You enjoy working with a committed team and contributing to a trusting and supportive atmosphere.
We Offer
Our culture is characterised by appreciation and openness. In your role, you take on a lot of responsibility and receive the corresponding scope for creativity. You work in a motivated and well-coordinated team. The salary is based on the cantonal teacher employment law.
