Jack Hope from Engage really helped organise my starting a new job at a school, whilst I was on holiday. He even helped to make sure that I could have an interview virtually via Zoom Link. Also throughout my time here at the school he was able to answer any questions and if he did not know to point me in the right direction. Very helpful and almost always available to help if there are any issues whilst at work, a very resourceful and helpful consultant.

My experience with Engage education has been outstanding. I was contacted by Emma, who was very supportive and positive from the start. Katie worked very closely with me and helped me secure a placement within a week. Since I was an overseas candidate, Katie guided me throughout my journey and made my transition smooth to the UK.She is always prompt in answering my queries and is always concerned about my well being. I highly recommend Engage education to all the candidates who are looking to secure placements in some good schools. Well done!

Ever since I joined Engage Eduaction, Parth has looked after my professional development and wellbeing with superb quality, precision and care.His quick of response to my availability needs should set the benchmark for others to follow. He has never failed to deliver any discussed terms of my employment, was always agile and honest about what could and could not be done.I am really satisfied and content with my current work, thanks to him, who always went an extra mile to find me the best opportunities to progress. Hats off 🙌 👏
S@Sh !.
My CV was picked up online by Engage Education, they contacted me and helped me to go through all the procedures. I absolutely loved their problem solving attitude, they came up with real solutions / suggestions instead of ignoring me and getting on with another candidate. And their trust paid off, I landed in a dream job ! Their support was impeccable, before, during and after the interview. My heartfelt thanks to Nadine and Dominique !
Jumana Y.

Agnieszka K.
My experience with Engage was fantastic. Thanks to Jamie and Alice's kind approach, I secured a job quickly and felt supported along the way. They were available to speak if needed, gave me invaluable advice and helped me feel confident in my role. Thank you, I appreciate your help and friendly approach! :)

Parth is very attentive and knowledgeable, always making sure I’m doing alright in the schools that I’ve been placed in. He takes time out of his day to check in on me and to make sure everything is going smoothly. It makes such a difference knowing that he genuinely cares about my well-being. It's such a rare quality to find in a manager, and I feel really lucky to have him. He definitely has made work experience so much better.
Darryl M.
Working with Engage Education has been a valuable and continuous learning experience. Parth’s agency and availability to support and guide from my very first day has helped make me into the SEN TA I am today. Would definitely recommend!

Certainly one of the best agencies I've had an experience with :) Jason and Laura were attentive and recognise you as an individual with specific needs. I happened to have met other teachers/teaching assistants looking for better agencies - and I'll refer them to Engage.
Qubrah R.
I have been working with Engage Education under Parth for a few month's now. I don't think I can work for anyone else. Parth has been amazing very understanding to my requirements, unbelievably helpful and considerate. Which is hard to find these days. I went back to work after 15 years and I could have not chosen a better company to work for.Thank you so much Parth.

John K.
Engage Education is honestly a fantastic agency to work with. I started off working with them as a TA and, after my PGCE, as a teacher. Both have been good experiences as they work with many amazing schools and take your wishes into account, such as wanting to work with specific year groups or a particular setting. But what I really appreciated the most is that they have friendly, approachable consultants. Simon and Parth have supported me a lot with my journey in teaching. Some days can be tough as a new teacher; however, they have been really encouraging, checking up on me to see how things are going, and providing me work in the best schools in the area.
jodie F.
Millie and Jamie have been amazing at helping me find a workplace everything has been extremely straightforward. Millie and Jamie have gone above and beyond to find a placement extremely quick too I would highly recommend this company if your looking for any roles within a school environment 😀

Engage Education always provide me with lots of temporary assignments. My Consultant Jack Hope is extremely helpful and informative.
Kieran M
My time with Engage was a really positive one. I was placed in the very capable hands of Armaan, and from our very first conversation, I felt very at ease. Not only did Armaan have a thorough conversation with me to understand my strengths and what I was looking for in the job, but the communication he provided through each and every stage of the process was super clear and quick.Armaan and Jai formed a dream team to find me a really great long term placement really quickly. Armaan was there every step of the way leading up to my placement and throughout my whole placement, answering every question I had, offering endless support, and providing a lot of positivity and reassurance which was all hugely appreciated. Jai was also really helpful in providing information about the placement and maintaining communication with the school and myself. Jai has accumulated a great network within the education system and this shows in his ability to place his candidates at such great schools - something for which I am very grateful.Armaan and Jai are both such legends and I can’t thank them enough for all their support and help throughout my time with Engage. They have really consistently gone above and beyond to ensure I was placed at a great school, ensure I was in the loop with any updates, and ensure all logistics were taken care of relieving the pressure off me.

I had signed up with a few recruitment agencies and it was crucial for me to find the right one to work with . Right from the beginning I was impressed with Parths professionalism and dedication .During the entire recruitment process, Parth Patel provided me the support and guidance I needed . It wasnt just reactive support when I went to him but he was very proactive ( even on his days off ! ) I would highly recommend him . Thank you so much Parth !

Bridget G.
I would like to recommend Engage Education, who are a very good agency, in particular JackHope who is my consultant, who has always managed to find me employment in schools. After registering with them he found me work immediately. He always follows up before, during & after the assignment ensuring I am happy with how everything is going, and any concerns or queries I may have. He is easily reachable and responds quickly to things. I am very happy working for this agency and would recommend him very highly.
Michelle D.
Engage Education is a fantastic agency to work for. My Consultant, Jack, is a great guy and is great at finding me work at great schools and is always available to support me throughout the whole time I have been with the company.

From start to finish Jamie and Laura were incredibly helpful in my search for the perfect job role, which I have just acquired today! I couldn’t have got this job without their connections and dedicated support throughout. Both always made themselves available to speak when I needed and I am very grateful for both their help!

Exceptional service from Beth at Engage EducationI recently moved to the UK from South Africa, and I was overwhelmed by the multitude of options available when looking for a teaching role. From the moment I spoke with Beth, I felt like I was in capable hands. She not only listened to my specific needs with regards to what I was looking for but also went above and beyond to make it a reality.What impressed me most about Beth was her incredible efficiency. I had uploaded my CV on various platforms, and I was inundated with messages from different agencies. The process of dealing with multiple agencies and providing them with the necessary documents and references was nothing short of overwhelming. However, Beth and Engage Education stood out among the rest. Beth guided me through the process seamlessly, making everything seem effortless, and I couldn't be more grateful for her expertise.Beth was her unwavering availability. I had numerous questions, often repeating the same ones, as the UK education system was entirely new to me. Beth patiently and thoroughly addressed each query, sometimes even responding outside regular working hours. Her dedication to ensuring I was well-informed and comfortable was truly exceptional.Beth's assistance in securing my long-term teaching role, which begins in January, has been a game-changer for me. Her proactive approach and commitment to her clients have made all the difference in my transition to teaching in the UK. I only wish I had connected with Beth and Engage Education from South Africa itself.If you're looking for a consultant who goes above and beyond, listens to your needs, and works tirelessly to help you achieve your goals, Beth is the one
bosun O.

Thank you so much for making my working year an enjoyable one!Engage has been consistent throughout the year, I actually never encountered any issues with this agency!100% recommend.
James Caleb K.
I contacted engage for the position of Teaching Assistant. I was interviewed by Wesley Woolf, who became my consultant. He was very proactive in finding me a job and he was very swift in responding to all my queries. He got me a job within few weeks & I have been placed in a lovely school. He is still checking up on me very regularly & assures me I can always reach out to him if in need of his services. I cannot recommend Engage enough and especially Wesley Woolf.

Jack Hope has been assisting me with jobs for quite a while now and he’s been great towards me. He is respectful and always communicating with me throughout the week to see how I’m doing and how work is going. He doesn’t know it but he helped me land a job at a school when I really needed it at the time as times were tough. I Will always have time for Jack!
Ms C.
My experience with Engage education is really positive. Grace Lampard was very supportive and positive from the start. She helped me secure a job within 2 or 3 days after registration, and it wasn’t very far from where I lived. She gave me all the information about the job and what I really like about her is she’s always responded to my queries very quick. The communication is top tier. Even after I had started , she kept checking up on me to find out how it went. Therefore I give her 5 stars because of her communication , hard-working and support. Well done!!
Stafney F.
Ever since I have been working with Engage Education I have been treated with upmost respect and care by Parth Patel and his team. Parth will check up on me asking me how I am doing when I am not working which I really appreciate. All the school I have been working so far since I have joined the agency have warmly welcomed me in their school. Working with Parth have been so amazing and I hope to carry on working with him.
