Testimonials

My relationship with Jennifer is great. She has responded to any questions I have asked. She keeps in touch with me on a regular basis.
I have only been registered with New Directions for less than a month and Jennifer has found a long term placement for me so I would most definitely recommend New Directions to other people. All the staff seem very friendly.
The registration process was quick and I was impressed that I was asked to do a safegaurding training, as part of the registration process. (I have been with other agencies and none have asked me to a safeguarding training).

Testimonial from Katherine, a Wirral teaching assistant

We have worked frequently over the last three years with Jen in the delivery of various schools football competitions. New Directions are sponsors in this event and are involved in promoting to our local schools and attending regular assemblies and tournaments. We have had constant contact with Jen and found her to be highly professional in all areas of her work. The highlight of working with New Directions is the pleasant and professional nature of their staff and their constant support in all areas of our activities. We would recommend New Directions as we are very impressed with the staff and in particular Jen Morrison for her support of our community outreach activities.

Testimonial from Steve at Tranmere Rovers

I have a very good relationship with Jen. I can contact her by phone, text or email depending on our need. She is always friendly and helpful and up front if she can’t find anyone suitable.
She checks in to make sure all is ok, but avoids the chaotic time in the morning.
I would say the highlight of working with New Directions is our relationship with Jen!…..

…..and the good staff that she finds us.

I feel that she understands the needs of the school very well. Being a special needs school means that we need candidates who are very hands on and are willing to be proactive.

Jen has done a good job so far…..

Well done Jen – carry on doing what you are doing and look out for new faces for us!

Testimonial from Beverley at Hayfield School, Wirral

Jennifer is always helpful, considerate, concerned and professional. Her attitude is in stark contrast to some people at other agencies who seem to consider that their candidates should be grateful for what they’re given. New Directions also provides on going CPD and I would recommend them.

Jennifer has been amazing to deal with, if there are ever any problems that I need to deal with I know I can rely on Jennifer to help me with the situation.
A highlight of working with New Directions is dealing with all the staff but especially Jennifer who has been so helpful, caring and considerate. She is always friendly and very reliable at getting back in touch if I need to speak to her. New Directions is a great company to work for! I would recommend them.

Testimonial by Sarah, Wirral teaching assistant

Jenny is an excellent consultant, who keeps in regular contact with me on all work related issues. She is always frank and open with me, and has been of particular assistance in finding me work which fits around the fact that I have an elderly parent to look after.
A highlight of working with New Directions is that I have been given the opportunity to work in a number of ALN schools which I have found to be most rewarding.
I like the fact that as well as Jenny, all other staff members are most helpful in resolving any issues I may have if Jenny is not available.
I would recommend New Directions to other people.

Testimonial from a Wirral teaching assistant, Jacqueline

I have been exceptionally lucky to have Kathryn as my account manager. Currently, my availability is limited at the moment due to works going on in the house and health issues. Despite this, you have always been able to find work that fits around my availability which is fantastic. She is extremely personable and patient, qualities which I think are necessary for this role. Always positive and helpful. I am so grateful for her on going support. Ms Sonia.

Candidate testimonial – Sonia

My name is Peter and I’m bilingual teaching assistant in primary schools in Cardiff. In July 2015 , I was made redundant so it was an extremely difficult time for me! I registered with New Directions in October and they listened to my situation and found me a suitable position in very short time. I became a happy bunny again because I love my job and most importantly, I can use my skills to help pupils who give me inspirations every single day.

I would like to THANK all the fantastic people of the New Directions team, who I met and who helped me from such a horrible, depressive situation.

THANK YOU!

Peter , LSA – Cardiff

Also being safe in the knowledge that appropriate staff will be supplied as requested, relieving stress for myself and other colleagues. There is Openness, honesty and helpful advice always received from Jenny.
