“I have been with New Directions for just over 2 months. When I first got in contact with New Directions I spoke with a lady called Laura who looks after me now. Laura talked me through everything and explained how everything will work and helped me enrol with New Directions. Laura has been a great support and is always there whenever I need her. Laura got me into work as soon as she could and took into account that I don’t drive, so she always made sure I could get to the place I was needed. I have currently been in my placement for 3 weeks now and I really love it. Laura always contacts me to see if I am okay and to make sure I don’t have any worries. I would recommend New Directions to anyone who wants to get back to work and to definitely work with Laura”.

Ella has been great support from the off-set. Always available on the phone, nothing is too much to ask. She always makes you feel cared about which hasn’t always been the case in previous work for other companies. I can’t see myself working anywhere else!

I have worked as a supply Teaching Assistant at New Directions for coming up to 4 years now, with the majority of that time working part time whilst I have been in university. Ella has been brilliant in understanding my circumstances and been extremely supportive of my studies whilst also helping me find work whenever I am available. Ella keeps in contact regularly to offer me work when I am available and ensures that the positions I cover are the perfect match for me and what I feel comfortable with.
Working for New Directions has allowed me to discover my passion for working in education, a role which I am seriously considering pursuing in the future, whilst also allowing me to continue my studies at university. Also through working in a variety of schools with kids of a wide variety of ages and abilities I have developed both a better understanding of my role as a Teaching Assistant and a confidence in myself that I have been able to take into other aspects of my life.

The highlight of working for New Directions Education is the security of knowing that they try their hardest to get you work and the weekly wages is so much better than having to wait for monthly wages. I must have been with New Directions Education on and off (when I get my own work) for 10 years now and find that they are a reliable, honest, and hard-working agency that has always found me work.

In all my time Ella, as well as her previous colleagues have treated me with care and professionalism. I have nothing but praise for her through thick and thin, she has been understanding and supportive. I’m still not back at work yet but am never made to feel bad or pressured. She is amazing!
My highlight of working with New Directions education is having such a caring staff and how hard they work to find work in all the lovely schools and the variety that comes with it.
