First Class Supply reveals expansion with new office at Blyth Workspace
North Tyneside-based First Class Supply has expanded its presence in Northumberland, opening a second office to meet increasing demand.
The growing education recruitment agency, which has worked in partnership with schools across the region for almost twelve years, now hopes to continue its reputation as the largest supply provider in Northumberland, opening new premises at Blyth Workspace.
Directors Lesley Robinson and Steph Boulton lead the 18-strong-team, which includes education professionals and ex-headteachers.
Blyth Workspace, the Arch Northumberland development on Commissioner’s Quay, opened earlier this year and provides contemporary facilities for meetings and training courses offered by the company.
Director Lesley Robinson said: “We work to build true partnerships with schools and ensure all our teaching staff feel valued. As we are the largest supply provider in Northumberland, it made sense to bring some of our staff closer to them.
“Blyth Workspace is a fabulous environment to work in and an ideal venue for hosting the many training courses we deliver to our schools and supply staff”.
Co-Director Steph Boulton added: “First Class Supply have been working with health professionals in this area for some time now and we are pleased to be providing a nationally recognised Mental Health First Aid programme, licenced by MHFA England to our partner schools.
“The first course is taking place on November 30 and December 1 this year and will be followed by a rolling programme of courses starting in January 2016.”
