You’re in good company
Our ability to bring children, families and schools the support they need relies on the relationships and connections we make. Here’s a sample of the feedback we’ve had from people who have called on Plymouth Learning Partnership’s services.
I have really enjoyed my time doing supply teaching with Supply Plus. I chose supply teaching after a long contract at a Plymouth School. My decision to leave came at a point in my life where I was keen to explore a different career path. Supply through Supply Plus gave me a breather and chance to think how I could use my skills in another way. It was totally flexible so I could map out my availability every week. It was so helpful to get an insight into how different schools operate and I learnt a lot from the experience.

Supply+ has been a great organisation to work with! The team are always friendly and helpful, and communication is good. The calendar system on the database works really well and there has always been work when I wanted it with age groups and in areas that suit me. I have enjoyed going into a range of different schools in Plymouth and have found it a supportive way of getting back into the classroom after a break.

"Thank you all so much for everything over the past 2 years! For enabling me to start my teaching career and for working so hard to make everything as smooth as possible!"

"The PLP team are warm, supportive and knowledgeable in their expertise. I enjoy my role within the team as a family learning mentor, and feel empowered to support children and families knowing I have a great team around me, with regular supervision and access to a variety of CPD opportunities to further my development."

"PLP is an inclusive company, which thrives on a supportive network of professionals within the team. They are compassionate and understanding."

I have greatly enjoyed my year with Supply Plus. For the first half of the year, I worked with schools across Plymouth, honing and developing my teaching skills after training as a teacher during the pandemic. In the second half of the year I had a long-term contract with a Year 4 class. I have truly loved every day of work this year and I am about to start a new chapter of my teaching career with a Year 1 class in London! I couldn’t have done it without you Supply Plus. Thank you for all the training, advice, always being on the end of the phone. You’ve helped me to springboard my career.

“I think PLP MAST have the balance just right, they emapthise with the challenges schools face and they respond in a timely manner. They support, guide and advise, but are not unrealistic or judgemental. We feel supported and guided in a way no other service can match at present..”

"I started working for PLP as a placement student and fell in love with not only the work but also the team and the values that underpin everything. I was later hired after finishing my degree and haven't looked back since. I work daily with children providing varying support and I utilise having a multi-disciplinary to help me tailor session to meet student needs. I feel valued and appreciated by PLP and could not imagine myself working elsewhere.”

"The calendar system is easy to use and the team have made every effort to be considerate with bookings that are accessible and convenient for me. I have enjoyed working in different schools and year groups. Thank you for your support!"

I have found the Supply Plus team a pleasure to work with. They have been warm, friendly and supportive. I have received a steady stream of work through an intuitive booking system and additional CPD according to my needs and interests. Highly recommended. Thank you Supply Plus!

"Thank you all for making my time with Supply+ so enjoyable. From the beginning the Supply+ team have been incredibly helpful alongside their excellent and frequent communication. I will happily recommend Supply+ to anyone I know going into supply work."

"I am thankful to have the opportunity to have such a proactive, compassionate service who are there to support and educate me within my role, whilst also expanding high-quality support and intervention for school staff, pupils and parents/families. I wouldn't be without PLP! "

"PLP doesn't hide away from the challenging, complex and often painful stuff that needs to be tackled in order to help young people succeed.

"I like that through my role in PLP children are at the heart of the therapy we deliver, and how good communication is between the team schools and families."

I have worked for Supply Plus since 2016, 7 years, and I would highly recommend this company. The staff have always been professional, caring and supportive. They are always polite and friendly and very importantly keep you informed of events. It has been a pleasure to work for Supply Plus, they are a wonderful team to work for.
