Academics Reviews 

After being contacted by a number of agencies, I never left conversations feeling assured or in a stable situation. However, when Tejinder first contacted me, a clear and conscious effort was made to be work as a team. Her and Academics constantly reassured me, as I dealt with unfamilar things, and always asked for my preferences. Communication was impeccable and work was found for me nearly instantly. I feel confident asking questions and I believe I am always listened to and valued. Strongly recommend going through this agency.

Fab to work for, great communication and swift support.

I have been with academics for a year now and I have has a great positive year with them.
Louis is great he motivates you and listens to what you are after.
They have a variety of schools that use them which I found beneficial for my own personal development.
The team are very friendly and try to help whenever they can.
I look forward to another academic year working with them!

I joined after finishing my PGCE (term ended a month before school term) and can honestly say they were amazing! I had work every day - and was also pre booked for work. Luke has been so supportive and efficient. Definitely a credit to the company. I would strongly recommend this agency, nothing was ever too much of an issue or a problem. And most of all, I felt valued and appreciated - this made a massive difference. I had regular check ins to make sure I was ok and also thanked regularly. Sad to be leaving (because I start my job in September) but will definitely be keeping the contact details to hand just in case. Diolch guys!

The staff at Academics have been amazing since day one. Very helpful, professional, easy to communicate with and polite. Hamzah Miah was amazing during my registration process when I first contacted them, he was really professional, helpful, patient and kind. Thanks to him all went well. After my registration went through, Elizabeth Barker-Green found me a lovely school. She was amazing, very professional and helpful, always ready to take my calls when I needed to speak to her, and always ready to help. All the people that I have spoken to at Academics have always been very helpful and polite. Wonderful agency to work for!

I've been working consistently with Academics for more than a year. The registration and compliance procedures were dealt with in a timely and professional manner.
My consultant Daniel is a joy to work with. He combines his professionalism with thought caring and sensitivity.
I've had some challenges during this year and he has taken great care to make sure that the roles he's secured for me are suitable for my needs. He makes clear that my well-being is a priority by regularly checking in with me with a telephone call. In addition, I appreciate the fact that the feedback he receives from schools I've worked with is always shared with me. This makes me feel valued and very much a part of the Academics team. Thank you for your continued support Daniel.

Everyone seems to be leaving! I have had 5 different consultants and still no work. Must be something wrong with management that everyone keeps leaving.

My experience with the Academics has been amazing so far- I have worked in lovely schools, gained fantastic experience and had a great support. Special thanks to Kamuran for being so patient and efficient in making sure my application is processed as soon as possible and,ofcourse, Jane who has been absolutely wonderful in making sure my experience with Academics continues to be smooth and truly enjoyable.
A pleasure to work with such lovely people.

For future improvements- it would be great if there would be more opportunities for training.

Louis at the Berkhamsted office looked after me well. I gained plenty of experience through a variety of work placements and worked in some wonderful schools.

Absolutely phenomenal experience. Tej was an absolute pleasure to work with from beginning to end. She helped my reference, took initiative on my DBS certificate and always available to help on any issue no matter how big or small. She got me an opportunity to restart my career and I am forever grateful to her.

Very professional and helpful staff. Sarah has been amazing from the beginning all the way through. Now thanks to her I've been offered a permanent position. Thanks Sarah, for signing me up to Academics and for all your help and advice.

I am immensely grateful to Elizabeth Baker Green for her outstanding support in securing me a primary teacher position as an Early Career Teacher (ECT). At a time when I was anxious about finding a job quickly, Elizabeth provided unwavering support and reassurance. She consistently checked in on my progress and went above and beyond with interview preparation and all-round support. Her dedication and encouragement made all the difference, and I cannot thank her enough for her exceptional help.

Yasmin at Academics is amazing !!!!! One of my colleagues told me about her and I contacted her regarding supply work and looking for a new role in September. The next day she contacted back with a school looking for a teacher, following day I went and secured a job as well as long term supply all summer!! She’s such a lovely person and so easy going!! She is always available when you need her whether that is via calling or texting she’s great at responding back and being so helpful!!! I’ve enjoyed my time working with her and I definitely know if my plans in the future change I will be contacting her again!!!!! Thank you Yasmin!!! You are truly lovely!!

Danny Webb at Academics Ltd. has been exceptional in securing regular work for me in various schools. His consistent check-ins and genuine concern for my well-being and job satisfaction have made a significant difference. Highly recommend his services!

Academics has been brilliant. I am now working in a school, which I love. So Thankyou Yasmin. X

Yasmin and Paris are like my guardian angels! They found me a role quickly but also making sure all my needs were met. Not only am I happy in my new role but also feel that if I had a concerns I could go to both of them, I was very well looked after. Thank you girls!

I have been with the agency Academics (Berkhamsted) for the past 2 years and all I have to say is good words for them. They are so hardworking, kind, and talented. They found me my career job in an amazing school, they helped me find exactly what I needed and I am forever grateful for this agency. Special credit to Louis and Daniel for working closely with me to find the perfect job for me!

Having found myself in a difficult career challenge in January 2024 I approached Academics having working worked alongside their manager Mr Austin in my previous role as Ast Head / INCo. The whole Berkhamsted team were super supportive and equally respectful to the challenge I was at the time facing. At times I relied on the advice from Mr Austin and coupled with frequent supply working matching my area and specialism I regained confidence as a respected, senior leader in my area. Their recruitment process was sensitive to my needs, respectful and also very smooth, this being imperative to me as I was well known within my local education authority. After much support, guidance and advice I was recruited back to a senior role within another school and to this day still remain in close contact with the team at Academics equally I have introduced them as a supplier of staff in my new school. Superb team, led by a compassionate and dedicated leader! Thank you

I have had a lot going on and needed work desperately. I spoke to Gary who is the first person in the months I'd been job hunting you genuinely seemed to want to help me find work he checks in constantly and makes sure to updated at every stage of the process. Now a couple of weeks later I have work. Absolutely amazing best people to go to
