Our Partners and Clients

Our approach to recruitment is consultative, and we consider our clients and candidates to be partners in a shared mission of achieving educational excellence.

Independent schools

We work with a wide range of schools, from charitable trusts and proprietor-led institutions to limited companies and global organisations. In each case, our efficient bespoke model ensures a tailored recruitment solution.

Flexibility and capacity are crucial in a sector defined both by challenge and variety. Smart, efficient recruitment can help educational institutions operate more successful in this dynamic landscape. Our services are designed specifically to achieve ideal outcomes in these environments.

We have over the years expanded our reach nationally across the UK independent sector. We are based in Central London, making transport access very straightforward.

International schools

As well as very long-standing relationships with a large client-base across the UK, London and the Home Counties, Connaught also works extensively with international schools across the globe. These range from British curriculum schools with parent organisations in the UK to IB World Schools, as well as privately owned organisations.

Education service providers

Our work also expands beyond the traditional classroom. Tutoring companies, curriculum design firms, school travel organisations, and many others often seek individuals with teaching experience or broader educational backgrounds who are looking to transition into roles outside of the typical school environment.

Qualified Candidates

Taken together, our extensive network of candidates and broad search capabilities ensure we are uniquely placed to offer effective, bespoke recruitment services to a very wide range of independent educators. Our consultative approach ensures we can quickly link the right candidate to often very specific needs.

A successful appointment is about more than just identifying a qualified candidate; it’s about ensuring the right cultural fit. The independent school sector is fast-moving and demanding but, like our clients, we remain focused on securing educational excellence.

With strong ongoing demand for capable teachers, we understand that finding the right person is crucial. The commitment of our clients to deliver for young people requires exceptional candidates. We know how to find the perfect appointment.
