Award Categories & Sponsors
Executive Sponsors
Vision for Education is delighted to be the main sponsor of the Examiner Schools Awards for the third year. As a leading education recruiter in the area, we are thrilled to support the event which recognises and celebrates the success of local schools and pupils.
As a company, we offer a high-quality recruitment service for schools of all kinds, providing quality, reliable teaching staff as and when schools need them. We operate under a simple set of values in everything we do. This means our aim is always to be open, honest and ethical in the way we do business.
We have a genuine passion for education and we are not sales people. Our consultants are knowledgeable about the current education climate and the challenges faced by schools. Our role is to be there to take at least one thing off your mind; recruitment.
We have a large pool of qualified and experienced teaching and support staff, available for emergency and short-term cover. You can also rely on us for long-term supply and permanent recruitment.
We are an official partner of TES Global and have dedicated primary, secondary and SEND consultants at our Huddersfield branch, who work with schools and teaching staff across the Kirklees, Calderdale, Wakefield and Bradford areas.
As well as providing a first-class recruitment service, we strongly believe in adding value to our partnerships and your pupils’ experiences, which we do through sponsorship of activities, regular competitions and volunteering in schools.
