Our Pledge

Teaching Personnel is committed to championing a culture of equality, where our people are empowered to be their best, both personally and professionally.

We are proud to support a culture and environment where we respect and value our differences and promote an inclusive workplace. We know that when people from different backgrounds and with different points of view work together, we create the most value and the best possible experiences for our clients, our candidates and our people.

Community engagement

Our staff regularly support their client schools at community events including school fetes, galas and prize giving presentations.

Pupil enrichment

Through our Bright Starts programme we provide free careers advice presentations at primary and secondary schools.  Bright Starts gives pupils an insight into possible careers, further education and training opportunities.  These presentations often have workshop elements – helping students with interview skills and CV writing.

Fundraising activities

TP Tokens is our charitable donations programme.  Each year we support five children and/or education charities.  The programme is highly engaging and allows our working candidates to decide which of the five charities they wish to support.  They do this by donating a TP Token, which is earned every time they work ten days through us.  At the end of each academic year we convert the TP Tokens in each charity pot into cash donations.

Supporting our people

From running marathons in aid of the MS Society to sleeping on the streets to support homeless teenagers, we support our staff in their pursuit of worthy causes.
We also have a number of team pursuits each year with Team TP recently taking part in Ultimate Warrior in support of nasen (national association for special educational needs).

Environmentally friendly

As we advance our digital services in order to maintain the best customer experience in our sector, we also continue to make great strides in becoming an environmentally friendly business.  Online invoicing, timesheets, payslips and diaries are examples of our progress.

I have worked for the company for just over 2 years, starting from a trainee and now in a management role. My journey has been great, amazing training both in house and in other branches, the whole company vision is thought out and followed through with products and services that enable us to be the market leaders for the education industry. I’m glad Teaching Personnel hired me! On to the future…
