Wired place in the end
Was with the company for a couple of years and when your face fits it is great. Issue with teacher active is your just spat out and messed around when they don’t want to know you. Communication is poor, and you have no hope in getting hold of people when they don’t wanner no you.

Not a great experience
They pestered me to sign up. I did. They got me virtually no work. One day in primary and this in September 2021 when schools couldn't find supply very easily. Was sent to special schools quite often with extremely troubled children - not my area of expertise. Overall, really quite terrible.

Great place, regular shifts if you have a car and UK qualifications,they care about the well being of staff and help with career progression as well.
Fantastic agency,the consultants take into account what you need.They are also really inclusive and you should apply here as an immigrant.I wouldn’t recommend sticking to them as a major agency though as shifts options appear limited
