Education Staff

Teachers, Teaching Assistants and SEN Staff Required for September
Rochdale & Oldham and surrounding areas
You Tell Us Your Day Rate. We'll Do the Rest.
At Top Marks Education, we believe education professionals should be valued, respected and fairly rewarded for the incredible work they do.
That's why one of the first questions we ask is simple:
What day rate are you looking for?
Unlike many agencies that tell you what you'll be paid, we take the time to understand your experience, skills and expectations, then work hard to achieve the best possible rate for you.
As we prepare for a busy September across Rochdale, Oldham and the surrounding Greater Manchester areas, we are expanding our talent pool and looking to connect with outstanding:
Teachers
Early Career Teachers (ECTs)
Teaching Assistants (TA2 & TA3)
Higher Level Teaching Assistants (HLTAs)
SEN Teachers and Support Staff
Learning Support Assistants
Behaviour Mentors
Cover Supervisors
Whether you're looking for daily supply, a long-term placement, or a permanent position, we'd love to hear from you.
Why Choose Top Marks Education?
More Permanent Opportunities
We operate a zero temp-to-perm fee model.
Unlike many agencies, we do not charge schools expensive transfer fees when they wish to offer our candidates permanent roles. This removes a significant barrier to employment and has helped many of our candidates secure permanent positions.
Our objective isn't to keep you on supply indefinitely. Our objective is to help you find the right school and the right career opportunity.
Fair Pay and Transparency
As a flat-fee recruiter, we're able to focus on what matters most: people.
Rather than taking excessive margins, we work hard to ensure schools receive an excellent service while candidates receive competitive rates and honest advice.
No hidden fees. No unrealistic promises. Just straightforward recruitment built on trust and transparency.
