Why Teachers Choose Us:

"I worked with Teaching Personnel Bristol for over a year. Their service has been exceptional to say the least. They proactively helped me seek supply work in and around Bristol, taking into account my needs and limitations (e.g. driving range). For schools that I enjoyed they helped me get repeat work. When I suggested that I would prefer small group tutoring they were also able to find me this work quickly. Sean was professional, proactive, friendly and very focused on the well-being of supply teachers. I have since recommended other teachers join TP if they want to transition into or seek temporary supply work. Highly recommend this agency."

If you are a resilient, reliable, and enthusiastic teacher who is ready to make a difference, we would love to hear from you.
