Special Educators or Teachers

Are you looking for a meaningful challenge with heart and impact?
Then join us at the Heilpädagogische Schule Grenchen HPS starting from the 25/26 school year.

Together with your colleagues, you will teach small classes of about 7 students with special educational needs. Together, you will create a learning environment characterized by individual, development-oriented educational opportunities.

As we are allowed to expand our school with an additional location with two classes, we are looking for

from August 2025 special education teachers or educators for various positions:

• Cycle 2, 10 lessons, working days Monday and Wednesday, permanent
• Cycle 2, 28 lessons, fixed-term until September 2025 with the option for a permanent position
• Cycle 2 + 3, 24 lessons, working days Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri, fixed-term until January 2026
• Cycle 2 + 3, 14 lessons in home economics, working days Tue/Fri, fixed-term until January 2026

You can expect a small school (about 42 students), where we maintain a respectful and appreciative working atmosphere. You will create learning spaces that are individual, structured, and loving. In doing so, you will work with parents and various professionals – and above all: with a lot of heart and humor.

What else awaits you with us:

• Cheerful colleagues – we are a manageable team that values mutual support.
• Fair working conditions – according to cantonal guidelines
• An engaged school leadership – that is interested in you and supports you.
• A relationship-oriented school day – that creates orientation with structures.
• Plenty of room for pedagogical co-design.

What you bring – and we look forward to you if…

• you enjoy individualized teaching.
• you are patient, creative, humorous, and flexible.
• you enjoy working independently in a great team.
• you care about supporting children with special educational needs.
• you have a recognized EDK teaching diploma with or without additional special education training.

Curious?
Then we look forward to your application!

If you have any questions beforehand, feel free to reach out – I will take the time for you.
