It’s been incredible working with New Directions the last couple of months, the contact and information that had been given to me has always been efficient and straight forward.
It’s given me frequency. Communications have been great, the online portal has been great.
I just want to thank New Directions for all the support I have received.

Katie, Teaching Assistant, Swansea
Kirsty has been so approachable and professional in all contact, I have felt supported and heard during the time I have been working with her. Any problems I have had, which have been nothing major, have been dealt with quickly and in a manner that leaves me feeling like I am in good hands and supported. I feel strongly that I can rely on Kirsty if anything should arise or if I have any queries.
My highlight has been entering into Special Education, this has sparked such a passion in me that I can not put it into words. I leave every day with pride and a sense of purpose and I never would have found this had I not taken the chance with New Directions and New Directions not taken a chance on me so I am forever grateful for this opportunity.

Kirsty has been great and kept in regular contact with me regarding opportunities and kept in check with me regularly.
Having the opportunity to work with different schools and meet new people has been my highlight and hopefully, after the Summer and my experience with New Directions I can get a full-time position in a school.

Kirsty has always been very polite, professional and easy to speak to. Always available to help with any questions. If at any time Kirsty is unavailable, other staff are always happy to take a message to pass on to Kirsty for me or to help if needed. I’ve enjoyed my time working with New Directions.

Craig, LSA, Swansea
I would like to thank Kirsty and all her colleagues at the Swansea branch of New Directions. They have not only been able to source a large number of appropriate placements for me, but they are always very easy to communicate with in terms of ease of contact and also their demeanour and professionalism.
I have already recommended New Directions to others and will continue to do so.

Richard, Music Specialist, Carmarthenshire
I’ve enjoyed working with New Directions over the past four years. All the staff have been friendly and helpful, especially during the lockdown in 2020. Kirsty Macklin has been very helpful in sorting my bookings and fixing any issues as soon as I ask. It has been a pleasure working with her.
My highlight of working with New Directions has been the communication-friendly staff always willing to help when needed.
Big thanks to all at New Directions, I’ve been looked after well, especially during the lockdown in 2020. New directions staff helped me get on the furlough scheme and found work for me as soon as it became available. Special thanks to my Line Manager Kirsty Macklin, very organised, lovely to talk to, and always helping me when needed!

I am enjoying working with New Direction. I can feel it is a very well-structured, reliable company. They keep me updated about all the steps of working with them from the interview, and new professional development opportunities (which they provide a lot). They have a very convenient way of communication through their portal where I can update about my availability, and see my payslips and available training.
