Schools

“Their objective is always that the decision around how to approach ‘your issue’ sits well with you, such that you are able to follow your own moral code. This has been very powerful for me and Hybrid HR have been an outstanding support for the day to day work but also for when things go wrong and a big (and normally difficult) issue has to be dealt with.”

Leanne, Headteacher, Ringwood School

  • Keeping children safe in education is our number one priority, and we’ll manage the Single Central Record and ensure compliance with KCSIE every step of the way.

RECRUITMENT

Something Different:

  • Let’s talk about our track record of delivering successful campaigns for brand new and expanding schools.

  • Open days can be an effective way of engaging with potential new recruits and the local community. Let’s talk more about how we can design and deliver a successful open day.

  • We've found that every business we work with has specific recruitment needs. For some, we work with them as a traditional recruitment agency - but with fees as low as 8%. For others, we work with them as their in-house recruitment team on a retainer basis - which can be more cost effective. For those recruiting to HR vacancies, we (uniquely) offer immediate support to address urgent needs, while at the same time sourcing their permanent appointment.

  • We’ll give you the assurance that your end to end recruitment process is compliant with KCSIE.

  • We’ll advise you on the best way to advertise to get the best outcomes and value for money which is critical in the current market.

  • We’ll help update your application forms, adverts and job descriptions so you don’t have to.

  • We’ll use our expertise to provide the best onboarding experience and welcome into your school for your new starters.

  • We work closely with you to understand what you need to give you the best chance of appointing the right person e.g. creating interview questions, designing assessments and support your SLT on the day if needed.

  • Whether it's planning your future workforce needs to maintain Outstanding, or to address issues that Require Improvement, we will work with you to optimise your future workforce structure within budget.
