No work offered from them in over a year!!! A lot of supply teachers are saying EXACTLY the same!! Promise the world at interview then nothing. It’ll be a wasted few hours of your life. Do not register with them. You have been warned!! They are too busy making marketing videos and enjoying too many fizz Fridays!!! It’s ridiculous!!!!!

Best supply agency in South Wales

I have worked for many supply agencies on and off over the years and Valleys is by far the best! They always provide local work best suited to my skills and regularly send me back to the same schools where possible meaning I have been able to build up a good rapport with staff and children alike. I have recommended them to many friends and final year students in the past and will continue to do so.
