Clare Hooton and her team at Supply Desk Sheffield were a tremendous help in transitioning to the UK from Australia. I first worked as a supply teacher in 2010, and within a couple weeks they had found me a year long maternity cover position in English. On my return to teaching in the UK in 2016 I was provided with supply work each day and within a week I received a semester long block in Geography. The GPS contract provided me with peace of mind, and at each step of the way I found Supply Desk highly professional and extremely helpful.

I am very happy with all aspects of the service and support that is given. Contact between Supply Desk and us as an organisation is very good, including onsite visits.

The service that I received from Claire and Luci at Supply Desk was brilliant. They arranged to meet me on the day I got in contact with them to complete the admin side of things. From that, they were in contact with me, letting me know about schools that were interested, showcasing their amazing customer service skills. This resulted in a quick turn around in getting me into a school and getting work for myself, all with a matter of days. I am now placed permanently and doing my NQT induction all within a week! Supply Desk are FAB!

I just wanted to thank the team for a fantastic Team Teach course. I can't tell you how much I learnt over two days and how my confidence has really grown in my understanding of self restraint and appropriate physical restraint too. I truly believe the skills and knowledge that Steph and Becca have taught me will enable me to confidently make the move into SEN, PRU & EBD sector of education. I also feel the theory taught throughout the course really underpinned all of the physical aspects perfectly, such as holds and restraints.
I am so thankful for the opportunity to participate and improve my own professional development, I will be recommending the Team Teach course with yourselves at Supply Desk to others in the education industry. Thanks again to Steph & Becca for their fantastic, interactive hands on approach.

I have been working with Chris at Supply Desk since March of this year. In this time Chris has supported our school and met our needs as and when I have requested teachers. Some requests have been extremely difficult but Supply Desk have come up with the goods for me each time.
Being a Catholic secondary school we do like to see Catholic candidates but they are few and far between at the moment. In the short weeks I have worked alongside Chris he has found me 3 Catholic teachers! This is a partnership I am looking forward to increasing and developing.
