This is what you can achieve with us:
The pupils in the class are on the autism spectrum and/or have a visual impairment or are blind. You plan the stage-appropriate lessons according to Curriculum 21 and carry them out. You receive support in the lessons from a pedagogical assistant as well as through close collaboration within the Cycle 3 team. In particular, you are responsible for the subjects Maths, NMG, M&I and IVE. Individual educational and support plans, which you create, serve as the basis for your teaching. In addition, you supervise the pedagogical team, ensure coordination work and maintain contact with the guardians and external specialist agencies. Administrative tasks such as maintaining the children's files and preparing reports also belong to your area of activity. Furthermore, you conduct progress discussions, participate in working groups and cross-class projects, and help organise special weeks. You share the class teaching role with a long-standing experienced teacher.
