Great service, found me a fantastic job that I love.

Amazing agency! Have worked for a few in the past and none of them match Redbox! Always have lots of work, the staff are super friendly and always very understanding/flexible.

Consistently professional from the start. Working with Raj has been a pleasure.

Hourglass have been more than helpful in finding me a suitable role. They have been friendly and professional. Maria especially has gone above and beyond to make sure that I’ve been happy where I’ve been placed, and her level of communication and dedication has helped me feel comfortable to call her with any queries or issues – which have been quickly dealt with.

I could not have made the move to London without Impact Teachers. They were there for me every step of the way. I felt like I was an important part of the team from the first meeting and interview. Throughout my time in London I received so much support from Impact, if I had a bad day, a good day or had a question about anything, I could call. [...]

TARA was recommended to me by a senior member of staff at the school in which I had volunteered. I changed my career recently, and Tara has helped me get into my first choice of school straight away as a full-time supply TA. [...]

I have had a really positive experience with Vibe recruitment and will be gutted that I can't work for them anymore. They really care about your personal development and placements. This is made clear through the regular communication you have such as having a phonecall every Friday to catch up, the fact that the recruiters are teachers themselves and work in these schools every so often - therefore they understand the job and what is best for you. [...]

This agency is friendly, supportive and will work hard on your behalf to find you work. Definitely sign up with them to find a great post.

I have submitted this review elsewhere as well. I secured a long-term position though VT. I initially found the agency staff to be polite and knowledgeable, and was happy with the school. However, towards the end of my contract, I found them to be not the most transparent of agencies. [...]

Amanda Afzal is an amazing recruitment consultant. She is easy to approach, down to earth and really takes your circumstances into account when finding potential jobs. I would recommend her to any potential teacher/ cover supervisor looking for work in the education industry. [...]

Working with ASQ with Jessica has been a pleasure, great service, dependable and reliable. My first time finding work through an agency and I do not feel let down, everything explained well all steps taken correctly and their for support if needed and not interfering at all. [...]

An excellent agency to work for. They take care to offer suitable work , they are professional, friendly and supportive. They offer opportunities for professional development, and they do not pressure you to take work that you are uncertain about. [...]

This is really the only decent teaching agency in Liverpool. I've had work everyday from these since the start of term ranging from long term day to day. Lizzie (secondary) is a credit to the team she really works hard to get you suitable work in your subject specialism and the appropriate rate. [...]

Supply Desk were an incredible teaching agency to work under during my first year as an NQT. I had worked with Supply Desk for a total of a year and a half. Within this time, they had always been very supportive; understanding with regard to availability and had taken any 'life situations' at the timw onboard to help cater to my needs without any problems. [...]

Avoid! very poor schools offered. they got only a few schools and i've been to 3 of their schools and they are all very poor! agency people are a dishonest crew, they are not straight but liars! i was booked in to do only one hour and i was offered 60 pounds only to get there and teach for one hour. [...]

Fantastic agency. Registered with quite a few agencies & Academics provided me with lots of work. I was on a long term post and have now got a permanent position with that school. Slightly less pay than some agencies due to umbrella company taking a cut. [...]

Such a terrible agency! I've literally only had a few days of work within the year I've been with them, which is quite shocking. Pay rates are pretty low, and considering how far they have sent me for work; it's really not worth it when you deduct travel expenses. [...]

Great agency with lovely friendly staff and very quick to organise work for you!! Strongly recommended!

I have registered with the Reading Branch in March 2017. The registration process was quick and easy and the team has been so helpful since. Thank you and looking forward to many more placements. L

PPA Education Limited is a very excellent Teaching or Education agency that offers brilliant high quality services with a high level of customer care or support. PPA Education Limited helped me in my time of need and the assignments or work I was given really sustained me and eventually led to the full time or permanent employment that I enjoy now. [...]

Rene Gordon was extremely professional and efficient in finding me a full time position in an excellent school. In fact, Rene found me my dream school. If you didn't post this comment, please ignore this email and report. [...]

There's always work available whenever I need it. The consultants are friendly and on your side if anything goes wrong that isn't your fault.

Strongly recommended to everyone to start your career in life with Classroom Teachers. The best place I've ever work , great understanding and very helpful team. My life, my career and my job it is now better then any other time in my life, thank to Classrooms Teachers. [...]

Bianca mead - She’s an amazing recruiter and very well trained at what she does. The few benifits I found joining Sugarman is that they always make sure I have a placement. Though the placements at time can be unsuitable for myself, Bianca (my consultant) has always pushed me through it and she’s constantly on the ball looking for schools which I’m more suited to. [...]

Best teaching agency ever! The helped me get a job in a great school in a city I wanted. Michael Wood was the one who helped me and answered a lot of my questions - and is still answering :) Dan Hardy (Empowering Learning) was the one who connected the school and me - without him, all of this would not be possible. [...]

Smart Teachers was recommended to me by a friend who had had a positive experience with them, and in particular she recommended Daniel Stuart. I have been with them since the beginning of this year and am extremely happy with the service that has been provided. [...]

Thoroughly enjoyed working with Sanza, I was given a role almost immediately after signing with them, in which I have now been asked to be with the school full time, permanently. Paige and everyone was amazing to work with, she put my needs first and made me feel important and valued. [...]

Amazing Company!

I cannot recommend Destination highly enough. 100% support from a fantastic team. Especially Aaron, he has help find some amazing roles for me within schools, taking on-board my preferences, giving fab advice and support. [...]

Fantastic agency, i have been working through them now for over a year and every aspect of there services are exceptional. They are friendly, hard working, honest and always get me exactly what it is i am looking for. [...]

I found this agency to be the most HONEST in the whole of London. When I worked for them I was paid well (main scale pay) and nothing was unfairly taken out of pay check - there was no umbrella company charges or 'Employers NI' to pay. [...]

I signed up with Hays about three years ago. The man who interviewed me was very friendly and after signing gave me regular work and mostly pre-booked. Six months into working for Hays this man, who had interviewed me and kept me working, left. [...]

I am delighted I joined Randstad education Crawley Branch I am always dealt with by helpful and enthusiastic staff. They are really appreciative of my other duties as a carer, and happily make way for that. [...]
