The supply teaching system in England is broken. Schools spend over £1.3 billion a year on supply teaching agencies, diverting valuable funds from frontline teaching. Yet schools still struggle to find the right teachers to fill their vacancies.
It could and should be much simpler. Humly’s new app-based solution gives schools a direct connection to quality supply teachers who are looking for work. This helps schools to save time and money as they no longer need to use traditional agencies. The app also helps schools to quickly identify and choose the right candidate for their available roles.
We’ve also listened carefully to schools to ensure that the quality of our teachers sets new standards. Following an extensive onboarding process that matches DfE requirements, Humly teachers receive job-specific training before entering the classroom.
Humly’s offer to schools is highly flexible and has been developed in response to detailed feedback from primary, secondary and MAT leaders. Schools can choose between two options.
Humly’s digital platform is available 24/7 for schools to post new vacancies and recruit supply teachers. This direct contact with hundreds of educators also helps schools save up to 30 minutes every time they need to hire a supply teacher.
Our platform means that high-quality supply teachers are just a few clicks away. Your specific requirements are only sent to teachers who match your criteria. Schools can then choose the best match for your needs and budget!
With fees typically 15% less than those of standard supply teaching agencies, working with Humly helps you focus your budget where it’s most needed. And our flexible, Pay As You Go option means that you only pay when a Humly teacher is appointed.
All of our teachers go through an extensive recruitment process following DfE guidelines, as well as receiving practical classroom training before starting work. Humly Express also guarantees that we will fill your vacancies with an ideal candidate every time.
With hundreds of registered teachers as well as an international network of schools and local councils already using us, Humly is a trusted name in supply teacher recruitment. We look forward to working with you!
