Safer recruitment isn’t just a box to tick. It’s a responsibility.

For recruiters working in education, staying up to date with safer recruitment practices is essential - and ongoing training plays a key role.

That’s why we’re pleased to highlight the upcoming Safer Recruitment training event from Adele Gladman & Associates, who we work closely with at Smile Education.

Adele’s specialist training is designed to help recruitment professionals strengthen their knowledge, understand their safeguarding responsibilities, and keep safer recruitment at the heart of their work.

We’re proud to work alongside Adele and her team and would encourage anyone working in recruitment to take a look at the event.

What does working in education mean to you? 👀

For some, it means being in the classroom. For others, it means supporting the people and schools that make education happen.

This week, we’re featuring opportunities across education and recruitment - different roles, but one thing in common: a passion for education.

Whichever angle you’re coming from, we’d love to have you as part of Smile Education.
