About the Role
Are you a qualified Primary Teacher looking for flexibility, an improved work-life balance, or a fresh challenge in West Sussex or Surrey? Randstad is currently recruiting enthusiastic and adaptable Primary School Teachers to support a network of fantastic primary schools across Crawley and the surrounding areas.
Whether you want the ultimate flexibility of "teach and leave" at 3:30 PM, or you are looking to secure a long-term position where you can fully embed yourself in a school community, we have a pathway tailored to you.
Your Options & Pay
We believe in transparent, fair pay that matches your level of responsibility:
Option 1: Day-to-Day / Short-Term Supply (£130 - £160 per day) Perfect for teachers who want to focus entirely on the classroom without taking the work home. Walk in, deliver pre-planned lessons, mark the books, and leave at 3:30 PM. No data tracking, no parents' evenings, and your weekends are completely your own.
Option 2: Long-Term / Full Class Responsibility (Paid to Scale) Looking for consistency and want to make a real impact? Take on a full class role including planning, preparation, and assessment (PPA) duties, and we will match your daily rate directly to your current Main Pay Scale / Upper Pay Scale (MPS/UPS).
What We Are Looking For
Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or an equivalent recognised teaching qualification (ECTs welcome to apply).
A genuine passion for primary education and the ability to adapt to different school environments.
Strong classroom management skills with a warm, positive, and inclusive approach.
Reliable, punctual, and comfortable commuting around the Crawley / Gatwick / Mid-Sussex area.
An enhanced DBS check registered on the Update Service (or willingness to apply for one).
