About the service

Minimise disruption to the school day

Comensura Education caters for all of a school's temporary staffing needs. From planned longer-term vacancies to emergency on-the-day cover, the system is designed to deliver the right temporary teachers and support staff to schools as quickly as possible. A 24 hour helpline is available for urgent recruitment needs, whilst the easy-to-use online booking service can help schools to contact multiple agencies simultaneously to find the right worker quickly.

Book the right people with the right skills and Credentials

This new service will allow schools to compare high quality temporary staff, put forward by multiple agencies or from existing supply banks, and choose the most suitable worker to fill the vacancy. Pay rate information will be provided upfront, helping schools to select the right staff on the basis of quality and value for money. In addition, schools that already use an existing temporary worker can continue to contact their existing supply agency to book the same worker (as long as the agency is approved to be on the system).

Peace of mind

Every supply agency signed up to Comensura Education will meet strict safeguarding standards, and will be audited regularly to ensure that all safeguarding checks are carried out for every worker. The service also allows schools to give feedback on all workers, enabling agencies to put only the best candidates forward for temporary vacancies. In addition, the service may also help school budgets stretch further as the upfront pricing feature encourages more competitive agency rates.

Schools and Local Authorities are eligible to sign up to Comensura Education. If you are interested in using the service, please Contact Us for more information
