Recruitment agencies offer a valuable service in times of need for schools and education professionals but how they are regarded does not always reflect this. Part of that is down to how recruitment agencies have conducted themselves or because schools have had bad experiences using their services. 

We like to think that Teachers Together is not your typical recruitment company. Teachers and support staff registered with us are not “temps” but members; people with valuable skills that should be respected and treated as individuals, not as products. The schools we work with are not “clients” but partners, as we are all in this together with a shared purpose of providing the next generation with the best education possible. 

Likewise, we want to give our members the best chance of developing their skills too with access to free training, something usually reserved for those working in permanent positions. Not just some “off-the-shelf” training package which ticks a box but a programme put together in collaboration with members and partners to ensure it really benefits everyone involved. 

Pricing, often regarded as something of a taboo or trade secret, is completely transparent with no hidden fees or surprises for either our members or our partners. We are accredited with the Living Wage foundation and our members are paid monthly via PAYE with enhanced pension contributions and separately accrued paid holiday from the start.
