Schools in Sweden

Post by eddiehaigh »

I'll be a newly qualified teacher this coming June and I am keen to work in Sweden. Previously I have worked in Denmark at a school before I gained my qualifications. What are the schools like in Sweden? Will I be ignored as a "newbie" by schools without years of experience under my belt? Any advice will be appreciated.

No schools in Sweden are represented on Search or ISS. That said there arent many youd really want to work at.

Schools in Sweden dont pay particularly well, unlike Denmark. Im sure you know the whole Denmark Sweden thing as far as tobacco and go. Buying any type requires going to System Bogart or a government store. electronics are more expensive.

School, wise and in just about every other situation there isnt any difference between Denmark and Sweden. The smaller schools (IB schools) will unlikely be interested in you, IS Stockholm wouldnt even give you the time of day.

It may be hard to believe but its actually colder (wind chill) in my opinion in Sweden then Denmark.
