Business description

Hakkasskolan in the village of Hakkas is a spacious primary school in the countryside of Gällivare municipality. It includes a preschool class, after-school care center and grades 1-9. The school has about 70 pupils from Hakkas and the surrounding villages, with some in-migration. The school has close access to a swimming pool and large natural areas that are used in all the pupils' activities. Hakkasskolan is a small school where we develop close relationships and dare to succeed and fail together. Our vision is "For a future where everything is possible!". We are constantly developing our teaching and learning environments to give students the best possible conditions for learning. Hakkasskolan has been granted an ERASMUS+ accreditation for 2021-2027. This means continuous cooperation projects with other schools around Europe with the possibility of travel within the service for all participating educators. The goals of the ERASMUS+ work are to collaborate with other schools in Europe that have similar challenges as we have, to strengthen students' motivation to read several languages, further develop distance learning and give students and teachers the opportunity to look at their own hometown from new perspectives.
