Internationella Engelska Skolan in Jönköping is looking for an enthusiastic and qualified Sports and Health teacher!

The subject is taught in Swedish and follows Lgr 11. It is a "vikariat" for 6 months, with a possible extension, during a parental leave and is a fulltime position teaching year 1-4. We are looking for a teacher who can start in January 2014.

Our school is successful and continuing to grow: we currently have 830 students in year groups 1-9, making us the biggest compulsory school in Jönköping County.

We prepare students for success in a safe learning environment where teachers can teach and students can learn. This expansion has created a need for enthusiastic, educated teachers to join our hard-working team. The entire building, sports hall and school area are newly built and provide an excellent environment for young people.

The core philosophy of the school can be summarised by three points: To Master the English Language, to have High Academic Expectations and to study in a Calm and Safe Learning Environment. We work hard to make these ideals a reality in our school. We have clear rules and expectations of our students; all teachers follow up on student behaviour. We use the concept of "tough love", which means helping students to realise their full potential by making each lesson and activity challenging and by providing regular homework and assessment. Half of the subjects are taught in English by native English speakers and half taught in Swedish by native Swedish speakers. We follow all school laws as set out by Skolverket.

All of our teachers are fully educated teachers. Being a positive and cooperative team player is a must. In addition to teaching meaningful and enjoyable lessons, all staff members are expected to be well organized, take pride in their mentorship and other school duties and be good role models for our students.

Please send your CV and application letter to jobs.jonkoping@engelska.se by November 17th with SPORTS in the subject line. Interviews may begin before the deadline of the advert. You can read more about our school and what it is like to work for us on www.engelska.se/jonkoping
