"I’m really pleased with my experience working with Dunbar Education. I was new to the area and was recommended to them—I’m so glad I joined. They’ve been excellent at finding me regular work, and all the schools I’ve worked at so far have been great, which really makes supply work enjoyable. A big thank you to George, who is always responsive, professional, and positive. I’d definitely recommend Dunbar Education to anyone looking for supply teaching work. "

Amanda

Primary Supply Teacher

"I highly recommend Dunbar Education to anyone looking for a teaching position. I have had a wonderful experience with them. From the moment I registered with them, they never failed to find me some long-term positions in various schools. Every Friday, I received a message of recognition and encouragement for my hard work. Through Dunbar’s placement, I have received a permanent offer to the school they sent me too. I am sincerely grateful to Dunbar Education and the supporting team. Thank you "
