Upper Secondary Psychology Teacher

About the school

Kungsholmens gymnasium/Stockholms Musikgymnasium has about 1,300 students and a little more than 100 employees, of whom 75 are teachers. We offer the Natural Science programme, the Social Science programme, the Humanities programme, the International Business programme, and Language Introduction. Our vision is Knowledge and Culture for an Active Influence in a Globalized world, and our ambition is to develop students' knowledge and promote their readiness to meet future challenges. We want our students to be able to take responsibility for and influence the future development of society in a sustainable global perspective.

The school offers an exciting environment with its three sections: the International section, the Choir section and the Swedish section. The sections interact with each other within the school. In the International section the language of instruction is English, but we follow the Swedish curriculum. Music is of great importance to our school and the school's Choir classes are an important institution in Stockholm's musical life. In addition, we have an active Student Union with a rich sports life and active student clubs.

Our offer

We are continuously developing our systematic quality work and pedagogical practise. For several years we have developed an organization for our professional development. Our school is characterized by diversity and tolerance, and we are ranked very highly by students in terms of wellbeing. Our students are happy to recommend their school to others.

Our teachers work in teams and our prioritised areas for development are:
• Collaboration that benefits sustainable learning and helps students to overview a larger field of
knowledge and develop an increasingly scientific approach.
• The school is a learning and inclusive organization where the staff learn from each other and the world around us, and share experiences to systematically develop teaching and other activities.
• Internationalisation, leading to learning and students' development towards the school's vision, curriculum goals, and programme goals.
