Leaders
Smile Education is dedicated to supporting headteachers, business/office managers and those in centralised MAT roles along their career journey. In addition to this, we’re also able to provide discounted safer recruitment training - required for those recruiting within schools - to those registered with us.
Teaching Assistants
Teaching assistants provide invaluable support within the classroom, which is why we work hard to assist them in finding work in a school they’ll love. Moreover, we’re able to offer all those who register with us access to resources to support with their job search and life in the classroom once they've secured a role.
SEN Teachers & TAs
We are proud to support a number of SEN schools in the UK with their teaching and classroom support staff. SEN settings support children with a variety of needs which including physical, emotional and behavioural needs. SEN Teachers and TAs also have the opportunity to gain a Team Teach qualification while working with us.
Cover Supervisors
Did you know that if you have a degree and some experience working with children you could be a cover supervisor? The role involves you supervising a class while they complete their work and is a great starting point for anyone considering undertaking a PGCE. We even offer cover supervisor training to help you feel confident in the classroom.
Nursery Nurses
We support a number of schools with their staffing and recruit nursery nurses, room leaders and managers to support their early years provision. We also offer all of our early years staff the option to undertake our Emergency Paediatric First Aid course - a compulsory requirement for those working in nursery settings.
Other School Roles
We know that schools don't just need help in the classroom, which is why we also recruit for a number of non-teaching roles including school caretakers, administrators, science technicians, cleaners, kitchen staff, lunchtime supervisors, exam invigilators, and more! Find more about our non-teaching roles and our registration process.
Residential Roles
It’s not just schools we work with, we also work with a number of children’s residential care homes, respite centres and supported living facilities across the UK.
