Schools Mutual Services (SMS) is a not-for-profit, mutual recruitment organisation dedicated to education. SMS was established to keep valuable resources within education with pay and benefits commensurate with colleagues across the sector.
Schools Mutual Services understand the ethos and direction of Trusts and Schools and provide suitable candidates that fit well into the existing workforce when needed. SMS ensure that Trusts and schools receive the best possible candidates to work across schools to help and support existing staff.
With over 40 years of education management and resourcing experience we can really find you the right people. Plus, any profits made by SMS stay in the Education sector, unlike private recruitment companies.
Schools Mutual Services is owned by member schools, not shareholders. And the best news for all schools is that the daily rates charged by SMS are the lowest in the market bar none - without being detrimental to our supply staff who are paid fairly, they are really looked after too!
