If your school is not in the North-West or Greater London

We understand the struggle that some schools may face in regards to accessing temporary staff. As a result, we offer a relocation option for our client schools. 

We help and send our staff to areas where there are at least 4 schools within a 15 mile radius that can tell us that they have a need for supply teachers. In order to access this option we strongly advise that headteachers perhaps discuss with neighbouring schools to gain an idea of the demand in the area.  

As this is less common, we advise that you call the office and ask to speak to Karim Benze to gain more of an insight and sign on your school with our services.
