Recruitment Stories

Mark Robinson
Relief Teacher, Wellington

“I heard about Education Personnel from a friend who had worked through them.  I needed work, so I registered.  I’ve been relieving in primary schools through Education Personnel. They’ve also found work for me supervising Holiday Programmes and semi-permanent release at a school.

The advantages of using Education Personnel are that there has been plenty of work, you get to have a good look around a lot of schools and this creates more opportunities for networking if you want them. The meeting when I first registered was really helpful too; it gave clear guidelines of what to expect and what is expected of relief teachers.

In my dealings with Education Personnel they have been reliable, consistent and professional.  Everyone working there is polite and approachable and I feel totally comfortable ringing them if I have any questions.”
