Teacher Testimonials

“I first started with Blackboard Recruitment 14 years ago and have worked for the company intermittently since then. Davina and her team have built solid relationships with local schools over the years and have always provided me with a friendly and professional service. I have rarely been without work and would choose Blackboard Recruitment above any other agencies”

“It is delightful hearing the dulcet tones of Davina or the joyous voice of Jo over the telephone when communicating with Blackboard. Being a small company one gets to know the voices. It’s a bit like a family. You know they will always do their best for you.”

“After leaving full time teaching, Blackboard Recruitment was the first agency that I joined. From the onset, Davina and Jo have been friendly, helpful, and approachable, providing me with work in a range of schools where I can use my experience and skill set most effectively. The agency works around your requirements and is flexible and accommodating. I have been very pleased with the professionalism of the company in terms of the communication and organisation and I would recommend Blackboard to anyone thinking of taking up supply teaching. Blackboard has made supply teaching a pleasurable alternative to working as a full time class based teacher.”

“Blackboard Recruitment has and always will be my go-to teacher supply agency, as all of the staff are enthusiastic, hardworking and have the teachers’ best interests at heart. They are very professional in their service and I have always enjoyed working for them. They strive to find work for the members of the agency and keep in regular contact to update us with work opportunities and ensure that all is well within the schools. I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with them.”

“I am always happy to work for Blackboard Recruitment. Over the years I have found them to be fair, reliable and very friendly and I would recommend them to any teacher looking for a trustworthy agency to work with in the Burton/South Derbyshire area.”

“Blackboard Recruitment is a great agency to work for. Their friendly, professional service enables them to effectively match teachers to vacancies as they arise. I would strongly recommend Blackboard to anyone interested in supply teaching.”

“Just like to say thanks for your on going support in finding me long term placements and day to day supply.
I have always found you and your colleagues to be most helpful, reliable and supportive —- no wonder I have have been with you for over 10 years!”
