Cape Primary School, Sandwell


I’ve been working for First for Education for the best part of a year now. Having worked for other ‘larger’ agencies I can honestly say that the support and care you get from First for Education is far superior.
First for Education offers schools a quality, professional service and I enjoy the regular work that they provide.

I have enjoyed working for First for Education since September 2005. One of the key reasons I registered with them was because of their strict high standards of recruitment, selecting staff of only a high calibre, as I feel this contributes to maintaining high standards of professionalism in the world of education.

In my experience the staff from First for Education are always enthusiastically received in schools. As it is a local agency the management team are well known to all employees, a friendly atmosphere is created in relationships with them and they make everyone feel a valued member of their team. There is regular contact and feedback from schools via the management team and they are always available if you need help and advice about anything. First for Education are sympathetic to providing employees with suitable placements for each individuals area of expertise and I have always found that regular work is available if it is required.

I would recommend anyone considering supply work in education to apply to First for Education.

I have always found the staff helpful and co-operative when seeking positions usually in my own subject areas,
Although I have had no long term positions I always get the impression that the staff are seeking that type of work on my behalf. Sheryl has a lovely telephone manner and has even spoken in a friendly and kind manner at anti-social hours
