In this academic essay I explore and reflect upon number of a number of questions arising from a dilemma. The dilemma comes from a situation where primary teachers with a specialization in extended school education (“recreation centre teachers”) is subject to contradictory demands and expectations in their job situation. I have searched for causes and new perspectives on the dilemma by exploring the role, mission and professional identity for this category of teachers. I find that a clear role as a teacher and a clear mission within the school is not present. Based on this I investigate different strategies and opportunities for the recreation centre teachers to use their competence and find their mission within the school based on the regulatory demands and different perspectives on learning. I find a need for further formalization of the role and mission and also opportunities for the recreation centre teacher to complement the traditional class room education with their own competences and different perspectives on education and learning.
