A Not-for-Profit Recruitment Agency That Puts Educators First
Unlike traditional supply agencies, Schools Mutual Services operates on a not-for-profit model. That means our focus isn’t on maximising margins, it’s on delivering better pay, stronger benefits, and genuine support for educators working in supply roles.
Our values-driven approach creates better outcomes for schools and a fairer, more transparent experience for candidates.
PAYE Contracts with Weekly Pay
All our educators are employed on PAYE contracts, giving you clarity, compliance, and security. You’ll also benefit from weekly pay, so you’re never left waiting to be paid for the work you do.
No umbrella companies. No confusing deductions. Just straightforward, reliable pay.
Paid to National Pay Scales
Schools Mutual Services pays educators in line with national pay scales, ensuring fair and consistent pay that reflects your experience and role. This removes uncertainty and ensures you’re always paid appropriately for your work in schools.

Your wellbeing is central to everything we do. All educators working with Schools Mutual Services have access to an extensive health and wellbeing programme, designed to support both mental and physical health.
This includes professional wellbeing services that help you stay supported inside and outside the classroom.
