A specialist agency, not a call centre
Premier Education is an independent education recruitment agency working exclusively across Early Years, Primary and SEN in the North West. Founded in 2001 and still run by the two people who started it.
Welcome to Premier Education
We are a specialist, independent education recruitment organisation working exclusively within the Early Years, Primary Education and SEN sector in the North West. We provide cover for long term, short term and day-to-day roles, and we recognise that every one of our education professionals, our teachers, teaching assistants, nursery nurses, administrative staff and site staff, is the reason the business works.
Established in 2001, Premier Education has been working in partnership with schools, nurseries and education professionals across the North West for 25 years. Our aim from day one was to build an education recruitment business we could be proud of, one based on old fashioned values: honesty, trust and integrity, efficiency and professionalism.
From humble beginnings we are now one of the leading education recruitment specialists in the North West of England.
What we stand for
Four values, chosen in 2001 and still the reason schools call us back.
Honesty
If we do not have the right person for your class, we say so. We would rather lose a booking than send someone who is not right for it.
Trust
Schools trust us because the staff we send have been interviewed by us, referenced by us and checked by us. Every time, no exceptions.
Efficiency
An emergency cover call at 7.00am gets answered by a person who already knows your school, not a queue and a ticket number.
Professionalism
We employ a team hand picked for their ethical approach to business and their willingness to buy into how Premier does things.
Not a job board. Not a call centre. A specialist.
We have deliberately stayed a specialist rather than becoming a general agency that does a bit of everything. It is why headteachers who have used us for years still ring the same consultant, and why our candidates stay with us for a decade or more.
See how we vet staffThank you for your support for St John’s. I have worked with other supply agencies at other schools and you have been so much more helpful, and the quality of the supply teachers has always been really good.
Working for us
We are a driven, ambitious and hard working team who pride ourselves on working collaboratively in a friendly atmosphere where success gets celebrated. We aim to be different from other agencies by putting the needs of our candidates and our schools at the front of everything we do.
