Employer Resources

Support on recruiting an education candidate

Recruiting candidates in education can be a minefield. With increasing legislation regarding the vetting of staff with access to children, it is important to make sure that you know what the full pre-employment checks are. Furthermore, issues such as the Work Visa’s and ‘Rights to Work’ in the UK are also of particular importance to employers in education. Education Vacancies has put together a collection of useful resources for employers. If you have any comments or questions regarding these or other resources for employers, please email us at admin@educationvacancies.com
