We are keen to engage qualified teachers for these casual assignment opportunities. We will carry out full safer recruitment and then keep you on our books to advise you of available assignments from time to time. This means that you get to work with a Trust whose policies and pupils you become familiar with, making the role less stressful than walking into a brand new school each time. And because we don’t end up paying fees to an agent, we can pay pension contributions for assignments you complete – meaning you may end up much better off than simply signing up with an agency.
