We understand that each trust is different, so we have adopted a flexible partnering approach to build the right solution for you. We focus on:

  • Leadership Recruitment – Providing opportunities for catholic teachers to find leadership roles within schools.
  • Catholic Future Teacher Programme – We recruit graduates from catholic universities looking to explore a career in education.
  • Future Leaders development programmes -  Working with our partners, Best Practice Network, we will help you develop talented educators into the next generation of school leaders.
  • Collaborative Catholic Ethos CPD – Our CPD helps broaden the range of educator talent available to you to raise academic attainment while upholding your ethos.
  • Local educator pools – We can help you build a pool of talented educators ready to fill any vacancy at short notice while maintaining the support for the Catholic ethos of your school.


“Teaching Personnel are my preferred agency. Teaching Personnel are the only Agency whose recruitment consultant takes the time to visit our school on a regular basis to get a feel for the school and an understanding of the needs of our pupils and students. This means that the candidates they put forward are of the right calibre and fit for our school. Our recruitment consultants are extremely professional, proactive, and a pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend Teaching Personnel.”

St Dominics, part of the Orchard Hill College Trust

We have used Teaching Personnel for over 10 years now, we have found their service reliable with good quality candidates. They are easy to contact both via email and telephone, from as early as 6:45 am to as late as 6:30 pm. We have used their service for everything from teaching staff to Learning Support Assistants and evening tutors for our more vulnerable students. This service has had a huge impact on the running of our school as without their support most days we would really struggle to support our students to learn.

St. Wilfrid's Catholic High School & Sixth Form College, Pontefract

St. Joseph’s RC High School has worked with Teaching Personnel for the past 4 years and has found them to be first-class. Our key recruitment contacts have an excellent understanding of our Catholic Ethos and the type of high-quality staff we require. Their communication and support have been outstanding, and we have no hesitation in recommending them to other Catholic Schools. A number of staff supplied by the agency on long-term placements are now on direct contracts at the school, which is a testament to the agency's understanding of the type of temporary staff best placed to meet our needs. The transition from long-term temporary via the agency to permanent at the school, in appropriate circumstances, has been an easy one.

St. Joseph’s RC High School, Newport

'I've worked with Teaching Personnel for a number of years, and my consultant has made a real effort to understand the needs of our school and its context, providing staff who fit our requirements well. Always professional, Emma develops relationships with clients so we can trust her judgement.'

I write on behalf of the Archdiocese of Liverpool to express our appreciation and support for the excellent service our schools have received from Teaching Personnel throughout our four years of partnership. Teaching Personnel has been excellent in providing candidates to support schools in a number of different areas, including both short and longer-term supply cover as well as SEN support and tuition services for pupils.
Tim Warren, Diocesan Director of Schools and Colleges - Archdiocese of Liverpool
Over the last couple of years we have built an excellent working partnership with Teaching Personnel. The quality of staff employed via the agency has been an extremely positive experience. Staff have demonstrated the highest standards of professionalism and have fully supported our whole-school ethos linked to learning and teaching, behaviour management and the wider Catholic community.

Mrs McCour - Head of School - St Julie's Catholic High School

I write on behalf of the Diocese of Middlesbrough to express our appreciation and support for the excellent service Teaching Personnel are providing to our schools. Our schools speak very positively of the staff you have supplied to them over many years, and the satisfaction ratings are exceptionally high. One aspect of your support we find extremely helpful is the regular SupplyMaps data reports you provide.

Mr Duffy, Diocesan Director - Diocese of Middlesbrough
