Our candidates have access to:

  • Local opportunities

  • Short and longer-term work
  • Support throughout the registration process
  • A team you can actually speak to
  • School-specific information and training where appropriate
  • Opportunities across mainstream and specialist education

Whether you are looking for occasional extra work or something more regular, we would be happy to discuss what could suit you.

Apply today and let us know your experience, location and availability.
