Job Description:

Are you an educator who looks beyond the diagnosis to see the person? Randstad Education is seeking a resilient and confident Secondary SEN Teacher for an immediate start in Felixstowe. We are looking for someone who understands that progress in an SEN setting isn't just about grades-it's about building independence, confidence, and life skills. At Randstad, we don't just fill gaps; we match personalities. We know that teaching in an SEN environment requires a specific set of tools-patience, humor, and thick skin.

Leading a team of TAs to ensure every student has a "champion" in the room
Celebrating the "small wins" that make a massive difference to a young person's day
Keeping accurate records of progress that reflect both academic and personal growth

Requirements:

Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or QTLS is essential
Experience managing a classroom of students with diverse and complex needs
An enhanced child DBS on the update service (or the willingness to get one)
Right to work in the UK - Essential (no sponsorship available)
A straightforward, honest, and empathetic approach to student support
Excellent communication skills-you'll be the bridge between students, parents, and the SENCO
