Smile Education are a team of dedicated education recruitment experts covering primary, secondary and SEN schools and their staff across the Midlands, North West and South Yorkshire. We have experienced specialist consultants working to place teachers, teaching assistants and cover supervisors in primary, secondary and SEN schools. We have a number of parents in our team so safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do and we pride ourselves in always exceeding DFE guidelines and only placing staff we would be comfortable educating our own children. We are committed to finding the right staff for every school we work with and take time to really get to know both our staff and the schools we work with. We enjoy adding value to the schools we work with and the wider local community, we regularly support school and community events such as careers fairs and sports days as well. If you are a Teacher or support staff looking for work in a School please get in touch, our registration process is straightforward and providing we get all documentation from you at the interview we can find you work really quickly! We vet everyone very carefully to ensure that we are only working with the best and most suitable people, working with you to enhance your career. Before sending you out to work we will have had a thorough interview where we find out your preferences and career goals. We will have obtained at least two full relevant professional references that cover a two year period, run through your CV to ensure that any gaps over the last 10 years are explained and covered by a character reference. We will have checked the prohibited and barred list, completed a Smile DBS or checked the update service, copied and verified original qualification, ID, eligibility to work in the UK and proof of address documents and run a google search! All of these checks and others are vital to ensure that we are safeguarding children and providing you with suitable roles. Please call or email us for more information on the type of work we have available at the moment. Internally we offer a family friendly focussed environment with the opportunity to be promoted every 3 months, a structured management training programme, extra holiday and commission for hitting target, profit share, incentives for free holidays, meals and early finishes amongst lots, lots more :-)
