I have worked for Academics for over two years so far. From my initial interview with my now consultant Reshma, I knew I was in good hands.
They have links to really great schools and have matched me accordingly based on my experience /subject choice, ensuring very competitive rates of pay so I’ve felt valued at assignments both long and short term.
Communication is great and you always know where you are with this agency. Also timesheets are super easy to fill in online and payment prompt.
Easily the best teaching agency I’ve worked for!

Staff work hard to ensure that schools employ agency staff accurately and within the terms and conditions.
The team are lovely and source positions that match experience and requirements.
Only thing I think they are missing is a regular check in with staff.

My experience with Academics was perfect. Liam was efficient with the set up requiring documents that were submitted with ease. Communication was clear, thorough and consistent throughout. I had daily work provided with a phone call before 7:30 each morning, and one placement lasting longer than a day.
