Agency Rankings

Lovely ladies in the office always cheery and bubbly personalities. Very professional service with excellent communication and understating of my needs as a TA. Great working with them!

I had the best experience with Red Box. The staff are super friendly! I genuinely can’t recommend them enough, nicest people and so understanding. You are never without work. And your needs are always taken into consideration. [...]

I am overwhelmed to share my experience with OPOGO. With teaching experience from my native country, I was having less hopes to get a job in the UK. OPOGO made my dream come true by providing the TA role in Primary and Secondary Schools. [...]

I have been working with Hourglass on and off since 2015. In my experience, they are an amazingly professional and efficient agency that will always go the extra mile to find the best possible position for their candidates. [...]

Vibe TR are truly a super friendly bunch. So down to earth, the service is honest, polite and individual. Every phone call, from the wake up availability call, the job it self or to see if you had a good day call, is a pleasant and reassuring experience. [...]

I [...]

Fantastic agency! Kept me busy. Lovely, personable staff. I worked with Nicola (secondary) and she was genuine in her approach to the role and my interests. I experienced a range of schools- some good, some bad. [...]

Thanks to the Impact Teachers, especially Louise I have got a fantastic job in such an incredible short time. The co-operation was amazing, the service very fast.Highly recommended!

Very flexible, good amount of local work, very friendly staff at Tara :)

I had an amazing experience with Horizon teachers all thanks to Danny! He was quick with responses, always kept me updated and overall extremely helpful and supportive. I was registered with Horizon Teachers on a Friday and the following Tuesday I had an interview and now have a new job role starting next week! There is not a single negative thing to say about my experience with Horizon teachers and I have Danny to thank for that. [...]

I joined Veritas around October 2019 I was immediately invited for an interview at a secondary academy and started almost immediately as a supply TA. Laura has been extremely helpful every step of the way, and when I was no longer needed at that academy Laura went out of her way to find the right job for me. [...]

A really nice, supportive agency. A huge thank you to Ryan who found me a settled two-days-a-week position at an excellent rate of pay. Ryan also listened really carefully to any moans l had about less agreeable schools and l always felt supported and listened to. [...]

Recently enrolled and was very comfortable with the whole process being that it was a while since I've been on interviews. A personable and helpful agency !

I was signed up with aspire last October 2019 with Rob Holland and within a week or so he called to say he’d got me a temporary position within a school that could lead to more regular/permanent work with security and general maintenance tasks. [...]

Working With ASQ. When I moved to London from Derby. I had just completed my PGCE. I was looking for several qualities in my first school. 1) A school in reasonable traveling distance. 2) One that would give me strong NQT training. [...]

My experience here has been positive. It's been a journey to find my feet in a new system, and JT have been able to help me out proactively through any challenges. I would recommend them to teachers coming to the UK. [...]

I found CER Excellent, the recruitment consultant was professional and also helped me when i called up with concerns or inquiries. i definitely recommend them highly and I felt supported really well the [...]

Work is plentiful but requests for pay rises (Watford) are unheard of, despite many years passing. They have fallen behind other agencies with their rates.

I have been working for ITN Mark on Fridays since December and have been to both schools and nurseries. Eamon is always very helpful, positive, friendly and keen to find work for me! He’s always keeping me updated with possible work opportunities and feedback from past placements. [...]

A great Teaching agency. Very effective with a friendly and professional approach. I definitely recommend it as they have been great with me from the beginning. I was particularly impressed with how easy it was to get in touch with them and how fast they found me a suitable school. [...]

Career Teachers is a very good teaching agency I’ve enjoyed working with them and would recommend them to all my friends and family

Apollo Bridgend- great service, registration was easy, really friendly consultants would highly recommend. Brilliant from start to finish

Just a waist of time. Staff were kind and professional at the registration process. Then they called me for a couple of jobs that didn't match my enquiry and qualifications. Fortunately I found a school via my personal search. [...]

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. [...]

Excellent supply agency. Consistently provide me with work at a good rate of pay. Friendly and profession office staff.

I have so much praise for SANZA especially for my consultant Paige Ferro, she has been a great support to me, finds great schools to work at. All the schools and the areas I need due to childcare all these are taken in consideration when I have dealt with her. [...]

I have been with Classroom teachers for the past three years. I must say it is the best agency I have ever worked with. Especially my consultant , Amba, goes extra mile to help . As a SEN Home Tutor , it is very difficult to find work as it is so limited and "niche" and not other agencies deal with vacancies as such, but Classroom , is one of the best agencies to deal with this kind of work. [...]

Stay clear of this agency! The primary consultant girl got me to register for a 'job' that didn't end up existing. She was then rude and very disrespectful when I caught her out on the lie. The worst consultant i have worked with. [...]

Worst teaching agency in Bristol. Called me several times in the morning, I was told off because I didn't answer, when all the agencies just pick the next teacher on the list. There is no loyalty in the agency world, and even less in TP. [...]

They came to Sydney to discuss working and they sounded very friendly at the interviews and when I was in Australia at the time. However, this was not the case once in London. They said they could give us ideas or websites for finding accommodation (they didn't), help us with directions (they didn't) and a few other things. [...]

I write this review because I want you to know that recruiters from So Smart can be very rude and disrespectful. I am experienced and qualified, so I applied. You will agree that So Smart have a very powerful marketing: "An agency by teachers, for teachers". [...]

I had a really nice recruiter called Adam Lucas help me to find my dream job at a place where I am respected and treated so well. Adam was really friendly and helpful. Adam called me before I went for my interview and afterwards. [...]

I worked with destination for a number of years and found them to be pretty organised and professional throughout my time working through them. The approach is quite hands off, and that suited me. The value of being booked in advance wherever possible was something they respected. [...]

I turned up to their office and no one knew who I was supposed to see there, because the invitation to come to their agency had been made over the phone. I told them that I had already filled in the online registration form and they still couldn't find me. [...]

Worst agency to work with! Do not work with this agency, you are better off with Redbox/Vision. (Daily rates are better and the staff are amazing.) I have worked with HAYS for 4 years and the first 2 years were amazing, Adriana was my consultant and she left I was then given XXX The management is poor. [...]

I've been working for Randstad Education Crawley for over 6 months and have always found everyone at that Office very reliable and professional - Stine in particular with her helpfulness and cheerful manner [...]

Fantastic agency. Friendly, professional, having your best interests at heart. My experience is they are up-front and honest; which is a refreshing change. Great to work for.

A real waste of time and a group of liars. No work at all no matter the degrees or the experience. Definitely not recommended.

Remedy is very probably the worst of the current teaching agencies. The boss is a bully and a tyrant who enjoys leaning on and pressurising people to get his own way. The jobs that I was offered were way out of my area, and the payment seemed to diminish with every week. [...]
