‘Thank you to everyone at ND for all the support over these past 3 years, the excellent handling of the Covid crises and I do hope ND will keep up the amazing work it has been doing including amongst other things the webinar sessions which have offered a wide variety of topics and have been a greatly appreciated.’

I would also like to say a huge thank you to all the account managers I have met during the past 3 years. You have been a fantastic group of people, working ever so hard to keep the schools and us workers happy, which no doubt is not always an easy feat.

And finally, a big thank you to Natasha, who only has been my account manager since the summer term of 2021.

My Account Manager is amazing! Ella Blythen always provides me with work and is always updating me on any upcoming placements.

She boosts my confidence and believes in me which is great. With many companies, you just feel like a number but Ella makes you feel really appreciated. She’s professional but also understanding and talks to you in such a friendly manner. For example; if she knows you had an exam in university or something, you can guarantee she will ask how you got on, that’s what I love about Ella being my Account Manager. She is approachable at all times.

New Directions Education flexibility has worked amazingly around me attending university. I have never really struggled for work and I have had long placements in schools which I have thoroughly enjoyed!

My Account Manager Ella Blythen has been brilliant from day one. From initial registeration all the way through to providing me work, nothing has ever been too much trouble. Whenever there is a query or problem she’s always really helpful. Help is either provided straight away or where that was not possible I’ve received a reponse within an hour or two.

I’m really pleased with the amount of work I’ve received through Ella and the placements I’ve been given.

I highly recommend New Directions Education.

My Account Manager Joanne and I have built up a good relationship.  I trust her completely  – she is competent, reliable, fair and understanding.  She has taken the time to get to know my strengths and now knows which bookings are suitable for me.  I know that she is always on the other end of the phone if needed.  She is a delight to liaise with and this makes a huge difference working for an agency.

Knowing that I can always depend on Jo and that she will do her absolute best for me.  I have every confidence in her finding suitable bookings for me and so far things have worked well.

I would highly recommend New Directions Education.

My Account Manager Ella has always been approachable, friendly and has really made the time to get to know me and find me work that matches my skills and experience. Ella is always cheerful and is always quick to pass on praise and positive comments from schools. She has also got me into several long term positions with various schools all of which have been amazing.

My highlight is working in my current long-term position in a Rhyl primary school and prior to this, covering long-term sick leave in another Rhyl primary school from November to February.

I love the courses and CPD training during school holidays they have been informative and very well run. The fact that you can attend as many as you would like is fantastic for your career development.

Ella is really friendly and approachable, and really easy to chat to! She makes regular contact to catch up and inform me of bookings, or to ask about future bookings ahead.

I enjoy working for New Directions Education as it works really well around my other part-time job where my days are not set. It enables flexibility with availability, as each week I work different days.

The staff at New Directions are really friendly and understanding and try to accommodate individual work needs.
