The 5 reasons teachers and carers choose us
1. Gain access to opportunities not advertised through the usual channels
Teachers and recruiters most often limit themselves to a small number of sources such as the TES. Many schools rely heavily on the ‘old boy network’, particularly UK private schools and their overseas franchises, or revert to traditional agencies focused on temporary staff or late appointments.
The result of this is continuity rather than the kind of dynamic learning that children should, and can, experience if a conscious effort is made to source inspirational new teaching talent.
What we can offer you:
We specialise in appointments on behalf of the best school employers.
We have a direct line to:
We keep our ear to the ground at all times and will connect you with the kind of fresh, attractive opportunities that your skills and experience merit.
2. Experience an exciting and focused job-search, not wasting any time or effort
Schools sometimes fail to realise that the willingness to complete a long-winded application does not correlate in any way with professional competence as a teacher or carer. The application process is also often a disconcerting ‘shot in the dark’ since you do not know if there is an internal candidate who is a shoo-in or if you are one of a four or five hundred-strong applicant pool.
Candidate requirement lists are almost always too generic, providing limited insight into whether you are really a good fit for the role or if it will be genuinely rewarding.
All in all, the inability of institutions to step outside of these recruitment norms mean that many of the best candidates simply do not bother to apply, and many teachers become so jaded with form filling that they accept the first serious offer they get.
What we can offer you:
Our mission is to make the job search easier and quicker, enabling you to focus your time and energy wisely, greatly increasing your chance of finding a role and employer to which you are ideally suited.
3. Receive 100% reliable information about prospective employers and locations
You deserve to be fully informed before you sign a contract and board a flight to an unfamiliar and possibly distant location. Blogs can be useful but their accuracy is often skewed by people with an agenda – either employers eager to transmit a positive impression or the subjective views of the least happy 10% of employees. School websites, inspection reports, travel advice and direct conversations with school recruiters sometimes leave applicants little the wiser and therefore reliant on little more than intuition.
But then what is the alternative?
What we can offer you:
Moving to a new country entails a certain amount of risk, but this in no way needs to be an irresponsible gamble. We have contacts in almost all locations and will provide you with detailed and honest information, so that you can be sure you know precisely what to expect when you step off the plane.
In instances when we don’t have the answers, we’ll advise you what questions you should ask at the interview stage and what written / contractual assurances you should request.
We only work with employers whom we judge to genuinely have teachers’ best interests at heart and we use our extensive confidential networks and conversations with their current staff to inform our judgements.
We’ll give you the peace of mind that you are making a safe and sensible career move.
4. Become a genuine contender for promotion opportunities
It is striking how management and leadership roles often go to undistinguished internal candidates in preference to impressive external applicants on the basis of ‘the devil you know’.
The tendency to promote internally or employ either a personal contact or someone who has done that precise job before creates an annoying and unfair ‘glass ceiling’ that can feel impossible to break through.
We understand the reasons for this, but this tendency to be overcautious can really hold back children’s learning, and you from securing the position that you deserve.
What we can offer you:
Our consultants are senior leaders from first-rate schools with a reputation for honesty and integrity, and as such our advice carries considerable weight with employers, giving them the confidence to step outside of their comfort zone and take recruitment decisions that best serve their students’ interests. This means more opportunities for you.
