Protecting children from harm in their safe school setting is critical. As an education recruitment agency, we make sure both the schools we work with and the staff we provide are as committed as we are to the wellbeing and safety of every person under the age of 18.


Our designated safeguarding lead is a former headteacher. Not only does this give you the peace of mind that we know exactly which safeguarding steps and policies to follow, it also means we truly understand the processes and why they’re crucial.
With Academic Appointments, you can trust we’ll take every vital step, and beyond, to protect the children in your school.

The 12-point check is our step-by-step child safety process. It makes sure every candidate meets the unwavering safeguarding expectations of both our agency and our schools. The method never changes, so you can rest assured nothing is missed.
