Textiles Teacher

Internationella Engelska Skolan Södertälje is  looking for a qualified Textiles teacher to join us in the fall term 2021, teaching Year 5 - Year 9. We are looking for a person with an enthusiasm for their subject, excellent classroom management, and a sincere interest in student well-being. There is a lot of freedom in our school to try new material and methods in the classroom.

In addition, you will be part of a year team (arbetslag) overseeing the academic progress and well-being of students.  We are looking for a positive and creative team player, who looks for solutions, shares ideas and is open to learn from others. The role also includes mentorship of 16 students.

We follow the Swedish National Curriculum for Crafts. Our student body is diverse, and to be successful in teaching at IES Södertälje you need to have a good understanding of students' differences, and the ability to adapt and plan well. A knowledge of Swedish is seen as a merit, though the subject can be taught in English or Swedish.

If this sounds interesting to you, please apply through the IES Careers website; interviews are held either digitally or at the school.
