Here you also find willingness and courage, initiative and faith in the future. It is the strength of the people that makes Avesta unique. Together we build Avesta's future \u2013 do you want to be part of it?\n\n1 position(s).\n\nDo you want to work close to students where your special education expertise really makes a difference? Do you want the opportunity to develop instruction for students with very different circumstances and find paths to learning, communication, and increased independence? Then this might be the job for you.\nWe are now seeking a special education teacher with primary placement in the individual program (IND) within the adapted upper secondary school.\nWith us you will meet students with different strengths, circumstances, and needs. Some students have extensive needs for adaptations and support and may, for example, lack spoken language or have other disabilities that affect communication, learning, and the possibility of participation. This means that instruction cannot always look like it traditionally does in a classroom.\nFor us, the task is therefore to find the way forward to each student. Communication can occur through speech \u2013 but also through, for example, pictures, signs, symbols, concrete objects, digital tools, or other forms of alternative and augmentative communication (AAC).\nYour Assignment\nAs a special education teacher, you have a central role in creating conditions for students' learning, communication, participation, and development. You work both directly with students and together with other professionals to develop instruction and the learning environment around them.\nYour work includes, among other things:\nplanning, implementing, and following up on individually adapted instruction\nteaching students within the individual program's subject areas based on their individual circumstances and goals\nmapping and analyzing students' strengths, knowledge, communication methods, and needs\ndeveloping teaching strategies and materials for students with extensive needs for support and adaptations\nworking with AAC and other alternative communication methods based on the individual student's circumstances\ncreating structure, clarity, and predictability in instruction\nworking to develop students' communication, participation, and independence\ndocumenting and tracking students' progression \u2013 even when development occurs in small but meaningful steps\nguiding and supporting teachers and resource educators\/student assistants in special education matters and approaches\ncooperating with student services, guardians, and other professionals regarding the student\nactively contributing to the development of instruction and accessible learning environments in the individual program.\n\nWho Are We Looking For?\nWe are primarily seeking someone who is trained as a special education teacher, preferably with specialization in intellectual disability. Experience from adapted primary or upper secondary school and work with students with extensive support needs is a merit.\nWe view positively knowledge and experience in, for example, AAC, TAKK, clarifying pedagogy, communication support, and work with students who lack or have limited spoken language.\nFor us, it is also important how you use your expertise in meeting the student. You need to have the ability to see possibilities for development even when progress does not follow an obvious path.\nAs a person, you are secure, stable, and patient. You are curious about what lies behind a student's way of communicating and acting and have the ability to change your own approach when what you first try doesn't work.\nYou also need to be relationship-building, clear, and solution-focused. Work in the individual program is based on close collaboration between teachers, special education teachers, resource educators, student services, and other professionals. It is therefore important that you can both work independently and contribute your expertise to the joint work around the student.\nAn Assignment Where Development Takes Different Paths\nIn the individual program, progress can look very different. For one student, it may involve developing a new way to communicate a need. For another, it may be about managing a task more independently, participating in an activity, or making oneself understood by one's surroundings.\nThis places high demands on pedagogical creativity, perseverance, and the ability to see and build on each student's abilities.\nWith us you also get significant opportunities to influence and develop the operations. We are therefore looking for you who has drive and who is not content with noting that something doesn't work, but wants to investigate why and together with colleagues find the next way forward.\nYou will become an important part of our continued development work in the individual program, with a shared goal: that every student, regardless of functional ability or communication method, is given the best possible conditions to learn, develop, participate, and become as independent as possible.\nEmployment form: Permanent employment.\nDuration: Start date: 2026-12-14 Or by agreement.","language":"sv","is_translated":true,"title_original":"Speciall\u00e4rare anpassade gymnasiet","description_original":"Det \u00e4r n\u00e5got speciellt med Avesta!\r\nH\u00e4r finns inte bara dalah\u00e4star och brusande forsar.
