You will become an important part of the school's community and collaborate closely with both the class teachers and the girl's parents. Your collaboration with children, parents, and colleagues is based on the school's four values: education, ambition, community, and trust.

  • A strong collegial community and support from the school's management
  • A workplace focused on both professional and personal development.

The position is covered by the law on the obligation to obtain criminal and child certificates. According to the law, employment can only begin when the municipality has received satisfactory criminal and child certificates. We would therefore like to point out that the start date can only be agreed upon once the municipality has received the child certificate from the National Police as well as the criminal certificate from the Police.

The child certificate is obtained by the municipality with the consent of the individual, while the criminal record is obtained by the individual from the police.
