Status:
Active
The Supply Teachers and Temporary Staff framework is a quick, compliant and cost-effective way to find temporary staff for your school.
Partnering with Crown Commercial Service, this framework is a Department for Education sponsored solution, giving you access to plenty of help and support.
When you’re looking to recruit temporary or fixed-term teachers and non-teaching staff, you want it to be a quick and easy process with reliable and trustworthy candidates. This is why we’re working in partnership with CCS to bring you a solution to help make things as easy as possible for you.
Available for schools, academies and trusts, you can recruit all roles in the education sector, including:
Qualified teachers: Special education needs (SEN and non-SEN)
Unqualified teachers: SEN and non-SEN
Educational support staff e.g. cover supervisors and teaching assistants
Headteachers
Senior leaders
Administrative, IT, finance, estates and maintenance, cleaning staff and more
Nominated worker
If you’d like to hire a worker who is not currently signed up to an agency supplier, you can use this framework to find a supplier who will perform the background screen and put them on the agency payroll for you. A worker signed up in this way is known as a nominated worker.
