2nd Febuary - New Leeds Branch Open

Leeds branch. Jason Robinson, director at School Staffing, says: “Despite the
current economic climate, School Staffing is looking to continue with its
rollout of regional offices. This is our fourth since we started trading less
than two years ago and we are looking to open at least two more this year.”
28th October 2010 – School Staffing delighted over Quality Mark award
 School Staffing are delighted to announce that we have reached an outstanding
milestone over half-term by being awarded the prestigious Quality Mark for
supply and education recruitment agencies.
This highly
sought-after award is a demonstration of our commitment to safer recruiting and
confirms our belief that schools and teachers deserve high quality agencies, and
this scheme also helps both schools and teachers have more confidence about the
agencies they use. It gives increased confidence to schools, parents and pupils
that staff supplied through School Staffing are recruited properly and have
ongoing support. For us it provides both assurance and official recognition that
the highest standards of recruitment practice are being adhered to; and all our
teachers – both present and future, will be confident that they have selected an
accredited and reputable service that will add value to their experience as
supply teachers. Any inspection in any establishment always makes one nervous, especially in this
case as we were so committed to achieving this superb recognition. We need not
have worried though as the assessor not only gave us a mark of 100%, but also
stated that she thought that School Staffing was “outstanding”, and that she
“could find no fault whatsoever.” She had no hesitation in awarding us The
Quality Mark and went on to commend our professional approach and the
sophistication of our internal systems.
Nicola Howley, Chief Compliance Officer, who had led the School Staffing team on
its way to this award said that she was “extremely proud of the achievement,
especially as we are a relatively young company.” Nicola also went on to say,
“This award clearly shows that we take our role in providing schools with the
right supply teachers very seriously and that any school who deals with us can
have absolute confidence in us and our staff.”
Jamie Hassall, Director, was the first to hear the news at the end of the audit
and whilst he admitted to being a little surprised at receiving the news so
quickly, he went on to say, “I never really had any doubts at all as the team
that we have working here have put everything into achieving this outstanding
award. We want to do things the right way and our own standards are so high
anyway that in spite of the obvious nerves, today’s audit was in the end a
formality. A mark of 100% backs that up, and we now can move forward and deliver
on our guarantees to our schools that School Staffing will only provide them
with the best teachers for their students.”
School Staffing wish to share this good news with all of their partnership
schools and supply teachers and to also add a massive ‘Thank You’ for all of
your continued support over the past 18 months. Without you all we wouldn’t have
had the success that we have.
6th September 2010 – All hands to the deck
The new term is finally here and School Staffing is anticipating the coming
months being very busy indeed. There has been a rapid growth in all our key
areas over the past twelve months and the upsurge in client business has led to
even more teachers joining our books, and the weight of phone calls from schools
for daily and long-term supply as well as permanent teachers has grown
exponentially. Our team is at its optimum with new consultants having recently
joined our existing group and we are still very keen to recruit new, high
quality teachers to service the growing demand from our partnership schools.
