About the school
Prästholmsskolan is located a few hundred metres from Brännastrand in central Boden. Outdoors there are grass areas and playgrounds with climbing frames that invite play.
The school is divided into three nearby buildings: the main building, the Prinsen House, and a building for PE, woodwork and the school restaurant. It is a Primary school (F–6) where Primary and Adapted Primary School are integrated.
Food and meals
Meals are served in the school’s own restaurant (separate building).
Safety and cooperation
The vision is to provide safety in everyday life and high knowledge in Swedish, mathematics and English. The guiding words are knowledge, safety, wellbeing and peace of study. To reach the vision we: make use of the school’s diversity and learn from each other, have active adults who lead outdoor sessions, apply clear pedagogical leadership and build good relationships, add movement on the timetable in some classes, offer teacher-led homework/study support, use genre pedagogy in parts of the teaching, run strong student-health work, collaborate collegially and provide continuous CPD.
Follow-up is done via focus groups, pupil interviews and surveys as well as mappings (IST Lärande, national tests, assessment support and the municipal follow-up plan).
Pedagogy and approach
Teaching is characterised by a language-developing approach with genre pedagogy as the method. The school’s multicultural environment is seen as a strength; exhibitions, Open House and concerts show pupils’ work.
Goal for knowledge development: improve goal attainment by 10% each school year in Swedish, English and mathematics.a
