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 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..”

"Our PLP SALT is invaluable to us. She is brilliant at supporting us in providing advice and strategies to support early SAL need, often eliminating the need for support later on. She is also flexible in the use of her time and has provided assessments and advice for older children, enabling us to identify and support needs for these children."

"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! "

"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."

"The service and provision provided by PLP has been exceptional and at times almost life saving They are professional and compassionate and strive to provide the very best for our families across our city."

“It has given me the opportunity to reach children and families who may never have been able to access therapy or support in the way that we give. It has allowed me to work with a variety of people and explore my practise over the years, enabling me to become the practitioner I am..”

"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."

"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 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.

"PLP MAST is central to my professional world. The team are always there, available, to provide the support and early help that is essential and required for our families and their children to survive and learn to thrive. Support for staff and colleagues has been invaluable in terms of CPD, professional advice, supervision and the under specific circumstances."

"I'd like to take the chance to thank the Supply+ team for supporting me through this stage of my career - I have been so much happier being back in schools and I have been able to do that because of the opportunity that Supply+ gave me."

Thank you for making my time with Supply+ so enjoyable. From the beginning the Supply+ team have been incredibly helpful alongside their excellent and frequent communication. Supply+ are often sending out emails with further CPD which I think is a great to have those continuous opportunities. I will happily recommend Supply+ to anyone I know going into supply work and am very proud to have represented them during my time doing supply work.

“PLP workers are flexible & try to meet the needs of child/home/school. They are the only support in the city who are actually proactive & help rather than have long waiting lists. We pay for additional high need & it's a worry for the future if school cannot meet this cost. The demand for support from PLP is ongoing & rising! We simply cannot do without them..”

"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!"
