Claire was fantastic to work with. She provided me with a variety of options, was approachable, and always responded quickly. Her positive attitude and professionalism made me feel confident that she had my best interests at heart. Claire was always available to assist, and no question ever felt too trivial. When she knew she would be unavailable, she proactively assigned another contact person and offered valuable advice to help me prepare for my interview.

Grace Teacher

SchoolHouse were incredibly easy to work with and supportive of the whole process. They sent through tips, advice and interview practice questions. Additionally, the team were friendly and prompt with all communication.

Kelly Head of Humanities

Niamh was fantastic support right the way through, from initial questions to interview support and post hiring. Niamh at SchoolHouse took me from panicking about employment to being settled at a school within a month.

Anton Science Teacher

Hannah Green was my education consultant and she was incredibly helpful in helping me to secure a position. Her communication was excellent; she followed up before and after the interview, she offered to help me prepare, she was honest, informative, kind and had good humour. I am incredibly appreciative for her help.

Emma Teacher

School House is a highly professional agency that has made my job search much easier. They have excellent connections with various schools and are very efficient in helping teachers find suitable roles. I highly recommend them.

Tiffany Economics Teacher

Fantastic, SchoolHouse communicated very well with me before and during the process of job finding, and would consistently send me job opportunities, and furthermore organise interviews with the school. They held my hand every step of the way and made the process extremely smooth. Can't recommend them enough.

Naoki Teacher

I am so grateful for the unwavering support of the lovely staff at SchoolHouse. The entire process was handled so well -from the regular contact we had about potential roles, to going the extra mile by preparing me for the interview. I highly recommend them for their communication, attentiveness and that they're invested in your success.

Caryn English Teacher

I arrived about four weeks ago from overseas and I found a few agencies like SchoolHouse in LinkedIn. This is the best agency I have dealt with.The staff is professional and maintains excellent communication. I highly recommend them to any teacher looking for a teaching and/or leadership position.

Maria Teacher

SchoolHouse has been our most trusted recruiter for teaching positions. It is clear that the team have a deep understanding of our context. Communication with the team is always transparent and timely. I regularly recommend SchoolHouse to my colleagues and would not hesitate to use them again when recruiting for leadership positions in the future.

Mr Shannon Lee Principal, All Souls St Gabriels School

Consultants took the time to understand the role we had available and the characteristics of candidates that might align with the role and the school. I would recommend SchoolHouse to assist in recruiting middle and senior leadership roles. Taking the time to understand the culture, values and needs of the school is a standout attribute of the SchoolHouse team, providing a high level of confidence in matching the right candidate with the school.

Mr Derek Naughten Head of People & Culture, Scots PGC College

We have had fantastic results with SchoolHouse. They present quality candidates who not only suit the roles but also our unique school environment. It is clear that the team understand who we are and communicate this to potential candidates prior to presentation for roles. Communication is outstanding and to have the team onsite in 2023 was fantastic to give them a tour of our College, meet staff and get a feel for the community.

Mr Simon Murphy Principal, Blackheath & Thornburgh College

I love working with SchoolHouse. They present strong candidates, communicate quickly & effectively, share all the information required in one go, and anticipate and act upon each next step without prompting. Plus, they offer amongst the most competitive placement fees in the market. 10/10 would recommend!
