Testimonials

I have been working as a Supply Teacher with New Directions for the last 3 months and the support has been great. From considering my placement choices to suit my personal needs to providing professional support, Tom has been very understanding and accommodating.

Personal circumstances have been considered every time a placement is offered and Tom has been in constant contact.

Becky has been extremely professional, positive and easy to contact. She has been extremely helpful in finding a constant stream of work for me at some lovely colleges and schools. I have been pleased with the level of experience provided.

I am so pleased I have used New Directions over other agencies out there because New Directions offer an excellent personal service. I have always had work off them and trust that they will always get me it. They are efficient and friendly. Highly recommendable.

I work with Dan at New Directions.  We have built up a very good working relationship over the years. We are very honest with each other and say things as they are. Dan has organised a number of long term posts for me, including my current one at a secondary school in the Vale of Glamorgan.  He has been a consistent voice at New Directions, whereas at other agencies you hardly know who it is you are talking to. I value the relationship we have built up which basically relies on trust!

Lots of information has been provided to me including training brochure and updates of relevant courses available. Staff are always friendly upon arrival and consistent with their form of contact via phone call and emails.
