We’re also a 5 minute walk away from Fenchurch Street Station and a 15 minute walk from Liverpool Street Station, both of which are served by mainline trains from Essex.

At Engage Education we’re proud to offer teacher training in Essex to provide the highest possible levels of support and advice as they progress in their careers. 

We do not just work with the very best of local teachers, however. We also recruit teachers from a pool of international education staff to ensure that we can match professionals to teaching roles ideally suited to them.  

At Engage Education, when it comes to new ideas there’s nothing we enjoy more than being ahead of the curve. We are driven by a commitment to continual innovation in education and recruitment, constantly challenging ourselves to raise standards across both sectors.

We do this by giving teachers the chance to find the role that truly fits them, alongside ongoing support and training that helps them realise their full potential and go even further.

We are passionate about helping our candidates find the right role, whether that’s a short-term position, a long-term placement, or a new permanent home.

It all begins with an, in-depth vetting call, where we take the time to really get to know you and your needs.

The better we understand your experience, background, and preferences, the more effectively we can match you with a school that’s rights for you

Ashvarya T.
I feel so lucky to be part of Engage Education. In my 5 years of teaching journey, it is the best supply teacher agency I’ve worked for till date. Ever since I joined Engage in June this year, I have been inundated with several teaching bookings at amazing schools. My dedicated consultant Alice is a superstar and she provides me with so much teaching work at her lovely partner schools. All the schools Engage work with are incredible and I’ve had such a positive experience working with them. Alice is so helpful, kind and understanding. She always goes above and beyond to help teachers like us secure bookings in schools. She is super organised and lets you know in advance whenever she can. I am so grateful for having joined Engage and would definitely love to continue working with them in the future. I recommend this agency to all the teachers, TAs and support staff out there!
