Primary Teacher – Specialist SEN Setting

2 days ago

Ipswich, United Kingdom Local Education Full time

Location: Ipswich

Contract: Full-time, temporary (up to a term)

Start Date: January

Salary: Competitive daily rate, based on experience

About the Role

Local Education is working closely with a specialist education setting in Ipswich to recruit a confident and adaptable Primary Teacher for a January start. This role is initially required for up to a term, with the potential for extension depending on need.

This is a rewarding opportunity to work in an alternative education environment supporting pupils who benefit from consistent routines, clear expectations and strong, nurturing relationships. The setting works with children across KS1 and KS2 who present a range of additional needs and learning styles.

The Pupils

Pupils may include:

*

Children working below age-related expectations

*

Pupils with SEN, including ASD and ADHD

*

Speech, language and communication needs

*

Pupils who thrive with structure, relational approaches and trauma-informed practice

The children are engaging, responsive and benefit greatly from calm, confident teaching and predictable routines.

Who We’re Looking For

We are keen to speak with:

*

Qualified Primary Teachers with experience in SEN, alternative provision or specialist settings

*

Teachers currently working in mainstream schools who are looking to transition into alternative education

*

Confident, resilient practitioners with strong behaviour management and a relational approach

Experience with trauma-informed practice, SEND support or intervention-based teaching is highly desirable, but not essential for the right candidate.

Key Responsibilities

*

Deliver engaging KS1/KS2 lessons adapted to diverse learning needs

*

Create a calm, structured and supportive classroom environment

*

Build positive, trusting relationships with pupils

*

Work collaboratively with support staff and leadership

*

Maintain consistency, routines and clear boundaries

Why Work with Local Education

*

Support from a dedicated, experienced education consultancy

*

Honest role briefings and clear expectations

*

Free trial days to ensure the role is the right fit

*

Ongoing opportunities across primary, SEN and alternative settings
