What you can achieve with us

The seven children in the class are on the autism spectrum with and without visual impairment. In addition, individual students are taught in a 1:1 setting. You plan age-appropriate lessons according to Curriculum 21 and carry them out together with the team. Individual education and support plans, which you create, serve as the basis for your teaching. You also supervise the educational 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 are also part of your duties. In addition, you conduct location discussions, participate in working groups, and help organize special weeks.  

What you bring with you

You have an EDK-recognized diploma in school special education, a primary teaching certificate, or are studying for a Bachelor in Primary Education or a Master in School Special Education. Ideally, you already have experience teaching students on the autism spectrum or visually impaired children. You approach challenges, such as those arising from students on the autism spectrum (AS) and visual impairments, with the necessary professionalism and calm. You enjoy working with a committed team and contributing to a trusting and supportive atmosphere.

What you can look forward to

In your role, you take on a lot of responsibility and receive the corresponding scope for design.
Our culture is characterized by appreciation and openness. You work in a motivated and well-coordinated team.
