Should you have a preferred type of school, don’t worry – our consultants have it covered.

We aim to support our schools with day to day supply needs, long term supply and fixed term roles, and permanent recruitment. We understand the process of advertising and finding quality staff for suitable opportunities can often be a long and time-consuming process, both for candidates and clients. This is where we come in to help. Our agency differs from other agencies – we like to meet all candidates first, offering a personalised and professional service.

For candidates, we again differ from other agencies in that we support candidates through the job seeking process. We assist teaching staff in interview preparation should they request it, assist teachers in providing quality feedback to lesson planning for trial lessons and provide resources to assist them transition into their next role. We feel our personalised approach sets us apart from our competitors – taking interest in our candidates and finding them suitable roles and potential employment opportunities.
