Indeed, I work at a school.
There is, a pædagog/pedagogue can work with multiple age groups. Kindergarten, School and institutions. In the broad term it’s about child-development in their early lives. However with institutions you often work with grown-ups with mental/physical disabilities. It’s a profession with a lot of different areas of expertise.
I work in a school, so the difference between a Pedagogue and a teacher might muddy the water a bit here. Where the teacher is the one who makes sure the children learn their ABC, math and so on, a Pedagogue job is to be"the voice" of the children, I’m in the classroom, but my focus is on their well-being, guiding them and giving them the social tools they need.
Pedagogues/Pædagoger is a very Scandinavian thing, there isn’t really an equivalent in the English language. They do exist outside Scandinavia, like Germany and Netherlands. However our roles are not quite the same.
