I have worked with New Directions for 5+ years, everyone has helped me extremely well over this period, always assisting my early mornings when I have been left stuck with sickness absences etc. The highlight of working with New Directions – It is a pleasure to deal with the Cardiff ladies – never made to feel like I am hassling them and they also do not hassle me on telephone which is a big thing in schools – we don’t have the time to speak to every agency. I would highly recommend New Directions,
Keep up the good work ladies/gents – and thank you!

I would just like to say how very pleased I have been with the support from New Directions over the last twelve months, particularly with the short notice daily cover that you provide as well as the longer term placements. I feel that we have built up a good rapport and would not hesitate to recommend New Directions to any other school. I would also say that the few problems we have had have been readily resolved and to me that is a sign of a good management team responding well to a client’s needs.

Mae fy mhrofiad fel athrawes llanw wedi bod yn un cadarnhaol. Roeddwn yn falch iawn pan ofynnwyd i mi weithio mewn un ysgol yn benodol yn enwedig gan fod dyddiau penodol wedi eu gosodwyd i mi weithio yno. Rwy’n hoffi’r berthynas sydd gen i gyda fy Rheolwr Cyfrif. Yr wyf yn credu ei fod yn gwerthfawrogi’r gwaith yr wyf yn ei wneud ac yn parchu’r blynyddoedd o brofiad sydd gen i mewn addysgu. Mae e dim ond yn cysylltu â mi pan mae angen iddo ac mae bob amser yn barod i esbonio pethau’n glir ac yn ddidwyll. Mae’n hawdd mynd ato heb fod yn rhy gyfarwydd. Rwyf wedi bod yn ffodus iawn i allu gweithio mewn un ysgol ac maent wedi bod yn gefnogol iawn. Credaf yn gryf fod gweithio mewn un neu ddwy ysgol yn rheolaidd o fudd i bawb dan sylw. Mae’r ysgol yn dangos eu cefnogaeth drwy gynorthwyo fy natblygiad. Mae addysgu fel athrawes cyflenwi yn ffynhonnell dda o incwm.
My experience as a supply teacher has been a positive one. I was very pleased when I was asked to work at only one school and have set days for working. I like the relationship I have with my organiser. I believe that he appreciates the work I do and respects the years of experience I have in teaching. He only contacts me when he needs to and is always willing to explain things clearly and frankly. He is very approachable without being familiar. I have been very fortunate in being able to work at one school and they have been very supportive. I strongly believe that working in one or two schools regularly benefits all concerned. The supply learns the schools systems, expectations and ways of discipline. The school can demonstrate their support by assisting in the supply’s development of their role. Supply teaching is a good source of income.

I have been using New Directions since September 2010 for all of my supply needs. I have always found New Directions to be professional, efficient and reliable. My Account Manger has an excellent understanding of the school and the staff that I require. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to any other schools.
New Directions are very different from other agencies, they offer a lot more than just supply teachers and competitive prices. The company have helped out the school with charity events and helped with sponsorships. They have also hired the school out a penalty shoot for free of charge just as thank you for the school using them for supply. This is available for any time we wish to use it and the student thoroughly enjoy it. I would always encourage other schools to try New Directions as I have never looked back since I gave them a try.

I deal with my Account Manager at New Directions Education on a day-to-day basis as part of my position as Cover Manager at St Patrick’s R.C. High School, Eccles.
I have always found her to be extremely professional in all the dealings I have had with her. She is courteous and polite and always provides suitable teachers to cover any absences we have.
The service we receive from New Directions Education is first class, I would not hesitate to encourage any of the schools in the Salford Area to use New Directions for supply staff.
I have also passed New Directions details to staff who have been on a temporary contract at St Patrick’s for them to register.
It is a pleasure to work closely with the team at New Directions and I hope to continue doing so.

There are of course a number of supply agencies available in the area, but in my view none with such a commitment to providing good service, and a willingness to listen to the customer’s needs than New Directions Education.
Our Account Manager at New Directions took the time to listen carefully to what we needed in the way of specific 1-1 support and matched this very well to the skill-sets her candidates had. In the event of their being unavailable, she responded quickly and efficiently providing cover and ringing to check that everything was OK.
In order to support her candidates, and therefore provide the school with excellent service, she has visited the school on a number of occasions and mentored the candidate personally, calling upon her own personal experience working with children with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC).
Nothing was too much trouble – even splitting the invoices – and I am delighted to be able to recommend her services wholeheartedly.
