I have known Douglas Campbell, in his capacity as Senior Consultant at Academics Limited, since 2009. Douglas has taken the time to get to know the College requirements when seeking a candidate on our behalf. He listens and takes on board what we are looking for and will keep me up updated on the progress of his search. We have a strong rapport and Douglas knows how strict I can be when requesting information and references from him.

Vanessa Coxon
Former Director of Inclusion Dunraven School
I have worked with Academics during this academic year 2010-11. Initially I urgently needed a Year 5 class teacher following a medical emergency of one of our staff, two days before the term started. On telephoning Academics, I spoke to Rob who listed carefully to the needs of our school and reassured me that he would be able to help. True to his word, Rob sent two candidates round to the school the following day for me to interview. By 5.00pm that day we had a new class teacher in post! The teacher was so committed that he came in over the weekend to get the classroom ready and to put up displays.

Headteacher
What I appreciate most about Academics is their selectivity. Not only are they selective about who they take onto their books, but they understand the individual needs of this school and only send us candidates they think are suitable. They are always my first port of call.
Elaine Lancod
The Ellen Wilkinson School for Girls
Because of Academics’ focussed and targeted support we were able to recruit colleagues suitably prepared for the diverse and difficult challenges of our children and parents/carers. Without question or reservation, Mr Phillips at Academics proved diligent and extremely hard working to ensure that he provided the support and referrals that we needed.
P Winder
Principal, Wolsey Junior School
Once Academics have been given the job specification, they can swiftly provide a number of good quality CVs and if interviews need to be arranged, this is organised by Academics with ease.
Because of the longstanding relationship between Academics and Raine’s Foundation School, they have a very good understanding of the school ethos and only supply candidates that are a good match. This is, of course, beneficial to all concerned.
Ms Winkle
Assistant Headteacher, Raine’s Foundation School
Academics obviously invest in their own recruitment process, ensuring that all candidates are thoroughly interviewed, briefed prior to school interview and possess all the necessary qualities to succeed in UK schools. All placements currently at Bromfords are of an exceptionally high standard. This approach to securing success of the placement is ongoing and they provide excellent CPD and support for their staff.
