Who we are
RTS recruitment is an employment agency specialising in recruitment services to the unique needs of the educational SEN setting. Our primary focus is on placing Teaching Assistants in classrooms and other support roles in challenging environments. 'R.T.S' was Founded in 2023 by Darren Bryson and Nathan Schall, two professionals with extensive experience in the education and mental health sectors. Inspired by our experiences working as HLTAs across Manchester, we recognised the need for a recruitment agency that truly understands the challenges of special education roles.
What we do
We specialize in recruiting, training, and supplying staff to schools bringing front line experience to the table. Having recently worked in schools themselves our recruiters know that when an environment has exceptional needs, it requires exceptional staff. In most settings, De-escalation can be the difference between calm OR conflict. That's why we train all of our staff in-house using the Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI) 'Safety Intervention' programme. CPI is a globally recognized leader in evidence-based de-escalation and crisis prevention training, trusted by over 42,000 certified instructors and 17 million professionals worldwide. At R.T.S recruitment we believe recruitment should value the worker as well as the client because job satisfaction and confidence can make a good worker a great worker. Whether it be from the financial compensation to support and guidance or career progression, our commitment to ongoing support, professional development, and well-being ensures that our workers are not just temporary solutions but valuable, long-term assets to the schools they work in.
Why choose RTS recruitment
Our mission is simple: to improve the quality of supply staff in schools and, in turn, enhance the educational experience for students who need it most. We achieve this by carefully understanding the unique needs of each school and matching them with confident, well-trained professionals who are equipped to make a positive impact. By investing in the right people and providing ongoing support, we are creating a culture of consistency and reliability in every placement. Our commitment is to deliver educational heroes - dedicated, well-trained, and enthusiastic individuals who can offer the understanding, empathy, and support that can transform a students life. At R.T.S, we are more than just a recruitment agency; we are partners in shaping brighter futures.
