We are looking for you who have experience as a physical education teacher and with great enthusiasm for your subject, excellent leadership in both the classroom and sports contexts, as well as a sincere interest in the students' well-being. The physical education teachers are also central to our well-developed student health work and offer many different activities, such as participation in various sports competitions with other IES schools.
