Teach in England with Point to Point Education

When recruitment challenges mount, student outcomes and staff wellbeing can be at risk. For Skinners’ Kent Academy, a thriving non-selective 11–18 school in Tunbridge Wells, securing high-quality teaching talent was proving difficult—until they partnered with Point to Point Education.

In this case study, we speak with Lorraine Barden, HR Manager at Skinners’ Academies Trust, about their experience navigating a tough teacher recruitment climate, and how our global talent pool and personalised service made all the difference after 2 months of fruitless advertising.
