Testimonials

From simple day-to-day advice, through to redundancy, capability and ill-health retirement issues, I have been supported by all advisors at different times and have found their work and advice to be accurate and effective. They have always been generous with their time, their advice; and both have taken the trouble to even contact me following issues to ensure that as Headteacher, I have received appropriate support personally. Both colleagues are warm, personable, supportive and dedicated to their schools. In September 2013, I moved to a new post in Cannock, Staffordshire. I was pleased to realise that I was to maintain the HR Advisors who had supported me with earlier issues. I have no hesitation in warmly recommending their work as HR Consultants.

I have been with Insight HR since the company formed, they always respond to e-mail enquiries – often followed by a personal courtesy call. I am guaranteed a direct response to any question asked, or advice sought, while made to feel valued, supported and genuinely listened to – no question or query is ever too small. It is incredibly reassuring, knowing I have this level of expertise and support at the end of the phone/via E-mail. While confident in the knowledge, that should a meeting be required, a senior HR Advisor will be in attendance offering support and guidance. Working with a named HR advisor, guarantees a friendly, personal service, allowing me to work alongside a member of the Insight team, who knows my school, my school’s employment history, my staffing structure and my requirements as Head Teacher. Not only does Insight provide an exceptional HR advice, they also provide a plethora of training for a wide range of current school-based issues and protocols. This is further supported by regular Newsletters and Fact Sheets, ensuring busy Head teachers remain up-to-date and aware of current legislative requirements. I would highly recommend Insight HR, due to their ability to provide a service that always goes above and beyond what is required.

The Creative Learning Partnership Trust recently used HR Insight to support in the recruitment of the Deputy CEO/ Director of Education.  HR Insight and Lynsey worked tirelessly to support the process, producing a professional looking job application pack, helping the short-listing processes and through the interview itself. All trustees commented upon the excellent support that was provided throughout the process which ensured the right calibre of candidate and the right final appointment. What I as CEO was impressed with was the support for references and the contract offer that just enabled the Trust leaders and Trustees to focus purely on the appointment rather than all the other required HR matters. Thank you HR Insight and we will be utilizing your services for all headteacher and senior central team appointments in the future.

Having worked with all of the advisors at Insight HR we have been constantly impressed by the high quality advice, solutions focused approach and empathy with the dynamic staffing situations which develop in schools.  We have found the advisors to be approachable, knowledgeable and highly skilled.  The service has been about enabling and supporting and the responsiveness has often been more than impressive.  This ‘can do’, going the extra mile, approach has been a breath of fresh air in our HR advice and has helped us to build, develop and manage our staff more effectively.  This has delivered tangible benefits to the pupils and freed the school leadership up to focus on Teaching and Learning.  The team are a real delight to work with and their expertise and support has been indispensable.
