With teams built serving geographical areas, the consultants within these teams live within their areas giving them a great insight and understanding of local communities and challenges.

We also have a strong compliance department which oversees our rigorous compliance and recruitment process ensuring candidates are only placed in schools once we have verified that they are safe and that they have the relevant experience for the role that they have applied for.
