The Process to Apply

At Certus Education, we aim to make the registration and onboarding process as smooth and straightforward as possible, helping you get into work quickly and confidently. Our experienced team will guide you through every stage, from registration through to clearance and placement. 

Get in touch by submitting your CV, completing our registration form, or speaking directly with one of our consultants. Once we understand your experience, skills, and career goals, we’ll begin matching you with suitable opportunities.

To begin the registration process, you may be asked to provide:

• Proof of identity 
• Proof of address 
• An up-to-date CV 
• Relevant qualifications and training certificates 
• Details of professional references 
• DBS information and right-to-work documentation where applicable

You’ll speak with a dedicated education recruitment specialist who will take the time to understand the type of role you are looking for, your experience, and the environments where you thrive best.

This allows us to match you with schools that suit both your professional strengths and personal preferences.

Our compliance team will complete all safeguarding and vetting checks to ensure you are fully cleared for work. This includes verifying documents, obtaining references, and supporting with DBS requirements where needed.

We understand the importance of safeguarding and work efficiently to complete the process as quickly as possible while maintaining the highest standards.

Once cleared, your consultant will begin introducing you to suitable opportunities across primary, secondary, SEND, and alternative provision settings. Whether you are looking for day-to-day supply, long-term placements, or permanent roles, we will support you throughout your journey with Certus Education.

Our relationship-focused approach means ongoing support doesn’t stop once you start work — we stay in regular contact to ensure every placement is the right fit for both you and the school.
