    We are delighted to confirm that our new Liverpool office based at the Royal Albert Dock is now open. We are already supporting schools in the Liverpool, Sefton and Knowsley areas with their day to day and longer-term staffing requirements and look forward to growing this number and developing strong and lasting relationships over the coming weeks and months. Opening our second office is a reflection of the successful growth we have experienced over the past 4 years and a wonderful chapter in the story of Red Apple Education. The Royal Albert Dock is a major tourist attraction in Liverpool and (outside London) is the most visited multi-use attraction in the UK. It is also a vital component of Liverpool's UNESCO designated World Heritage status and has a vibrant and growing business community. With its docking complex and warehouses comprising the largest single collection of Grade I listed buildings anywhere in the UK, we are understandably very proud to have an office in such a prestigious location. Our Liverpool office not only allows us to support more schools, local authorities, trusts and academies, but also given the proximity between Wirral and Liverpool, provides an opportunity for our staff to work in more schools providing greater diversity and experience. We can also attract a greater number of high-quality staff who are seeking employment in the Merseyside and Cheshire areas. Our existing office in the village of Thornton Hough, Wirral will continue to be our head office. We offer our schools our unique service that benefits from affordable pricing and quality staff. We have a 100% satisfaction rate with all the schools we currently work with and would be happy to share testimonials that reflect how good and how effective we are when working with schools. To give just one example… "Red Apple Education is the best agency I have ever used and I would use no other. They totally understand my school's needs and provided two outstanding teachers for me when Ofsted was looming…I can't praise them enough!" (Headteacher, Cheshire Primary School). We are widely recognised as being specialists at providing creative staffing solutions for schools. We are still wholly committed to charging our schools less at the same time as paying our staff more. We provide staffing cover and solutions for all school roles from caretakers, cleaners and kitchen staff to admin, teaching assistants, teachers and leadership positions. If you are a school and have any staffing requirements either day-to-day, short term or long term then please do not hesitate to call us on . If you are looking to work in a school setting, then please give us a call on the same number for an informal chat. When you speak to us you will be speaking to staff who have all worked in schools at senior leadership level, so we totally understand your challenges!
