About us

Our business started in 1993 with the formation of Capstan Limited in London, Sheffield and Newcastle. In 2000, Capita Education Resourcing was established amalgamating the well established Capstan with a number of very successful regional education recruitment businesses including LHR in London, ESS in the North West and Quality Teachers in Birmingham.

With over 200 staff employed in offices nationwide, Capita Education Resourcing has become one of the most successful education recruitment businesses in the UK. Over the last three years Capita Education Resourcing has opened five more offices in Cardiff, Reading, Luton, Nottingham and Leicester as the business continues to go from strength to strength.

Capita Education Resourcing aspires to become the first choice in education recruitment for all schools, teachers and of course our staff. Over the past twelve years, Capita Education Resourcing has developed a reputation for high quality service to its schools, nurseries and colleges. 

Over the last decade we have been regularly audited by DfE inspectors and always gained the 100% pass mark in Quality Mark audits; however on the 31st March 2013 the DfE’s Quality Mark came to an end.
In order to preserve the outstanding results and uphold exacting safeguarding standards, we have launched our own rigorous safeguarding measure - the “Teachsafe by Capita” mark.
