Walking and Talking

"…BECAUSE OF THEIR HONESTY…"

“Enlighten Supply Pool have always provided our school with an excellent service by sending us quality teachers at reasonable prices. One of the reasons we use Enlighten Supply Pool is because of their honesty, if they don’t have a candidate that would be suitable for our school, they will tell us in good time to arrange a replacement. The knowledge of the consultant is excellent and they know exactly which candidates would suit our school. I look forward to building on our fruitful working relationship”
