Connecting at the QEII Centre

Our team spent a busy day catching up with school business leaders and MAT decision-makers from across the country. It was great to hear first-hand about the evolving needs of school estates and to discuss how a reliable site team is the backbone of a well-run school.

We were also delighted to see our famous tape measures and radiator keys finding new homes with delegates. These proved to be the perfect icebreaker as we discussed site staffing requirements for the remainder of the academic year.

 

Why Schools are Partnering with TIB Services

During our conversations, we highlighted how TIB Services helps schools move away from reactive "emergency" hiring toward a more sustainable, high-quality staffing model. Key talking points included:

  • Compliance-first staffing: Every caretaker and site manager we provide is fully vetted to Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) standards. With Enhanced DBS and Right-to-Work checks completed upfront, we provide all schools with a Letter of Assurance for their central school record before a candidate ever steps foot on the site.
  • Training & immediate impact: Our staff arrive trained in compliance, health & safety, and safeguarding. This allows them to step into a school environment and make a positive impact from day one.

 

Exclusive Benefits: Our Priority Service

Many leaders we spoke with were particularly interested in how we streamline support for multi-academy trusts and their academies. We enjoyed discussing the exclusive benefits of our Priority Service, which includes:

  • Fast-tracked enquiries for speedy site management cover
  • A dedicated point of contact for seamless support
  • Free temp-to-perm transfers after 12 weeks with just four weeks’ notice*
  • 10% discount on the first month's cover for all schools *

 

Thank You

We would like to extend a huge thank you to the Institute of School Business Leadership and the organisers of the School Resource Management Summit for hosting such a professional and strategic event. A special thanks goes to everyone who visited us to share their challenges with school site team recruitment.
