Welcome to the support staff area

Select Education prides itself on making life simpler for education support staff of all kinds by giving you unbeatable choice and flexibility in your professional life. As the UK's largest and longest established specialist educational recruitment consultancy, we aim to provide the widest possible selection of education support opportunities through our nationwide network of offices. We enjoy 'preferred supplier' status with many local education authorities and work in close partnership with many others. Teaching support staff are playing an increasingly important role in education - therefore you'll have the chance to work in a wide range of schools, when and where you want, to enable you to arrange your working life around the other demands on your time.

Whether you are looking for permanent, full-time, or temporary part time roles, we will offer a personal, friendly service to find you the work that suits you best. At the outset, you will have a face-to-face interview with a specialist consultant to assess your needs. Before you start an assignment or go for an interview, we'll brief you thoroughly, based on our in-depth knowledge of the school's needs and culture. We'll also provide opportunities for you to improve your skills through seminars and a unique online mentoring facility. If you choose to do supply work you'll enjoy excellent rates, paid weekly, straight into your bank account.

The teams in our offices are all trained through our specialist training academy and are briefed regularly on developments in education to offer you the support you need. They'll listen to what you have to say - about your needs, aspirations, where and how you want to work - to find you the right roles in the schools that suit you. Many of them have classroom experience, so they'll understand and be able to give advice about the challenges you'll face in the classroom.
