Support Stars Academy

There is a growing challenge across education.

Schools need reliable, confident, well-prepared support staff - not just to fill gaps, but to genuinely strengthen classrooms, support teachers and improve outcomes for pupils.

At the same time, there are thousands of individuals who want to work in schools… but don’t know where to start, or aren’t being given the right opportunity.

Support Stars Academy bridges that gap.

Built by educationRnR, this is not just a recruitment solution. It is a training-led pathway into education, designed to develop high-quality Teaching Assistants, Learning Support Assistants and support staff who are ready to make a difference from day one.

Most recruitment models focus on speed.

Support Stars Academy focuses on quality, preparation and long-term success.

Every individual who joins the programme is carefully selected for their attitude, potential and commitment to working in education. Before they ever step into a school, they complete structured, CPD-accredited training aligned with real classroom expectations.

This means schools are not taking a chance.

They are welcoming someone who already understands safeguarding, behaviour, wellbeing and the realities of working in a school environment.

If you have ever struggled to find the right support staff, you are not alone.

The challenge is rarely just availability - it is finding people who are ready, who understand the role and who can integrate quickly into your team.

Support Stars Academy changes that.

We take the time to understand your school properly. Your pupils, your priorities, your pressures. From there, we introduce individuals who are aligned not just in skillset, but in mindset.

The result is simple. When a Support Star arrives in your school, they are not starting from zero. They are building from a strong foundation.

Over time, they become part of your school. They know your systems, your staff and most importantly, your pupils. That continuity is where the real impact happens.

If you are looking to start a career in education, the biggest challenge is often getting your foot in the door.

Support Stars Academy gives you a way in - but more importantly, it gives you the right start.

This is not about being placed into a school and expected to “figure it out”. It is about being properly prepared, supported and developed.

From safeguarding and behaviour management to mental wellbeing and inclusion, you will gain the knowledge and confidence needed to step into a classroom and contribute straight away.

You will then build real experience in a school, supported by a team that understands education and is invested in your progress.

For many, this becomes the first step into a long-term and rewarding career in schools.

Support Stars Academy has been designed by people who understand schools.

We know the pressure on leadership teams. We know the importance of consistency for pupils. And we know that great support staff can transform a classroom.

That is why this programme is built around three principles:

Preparation matters.

Individuals should arrive ready to contribute, not just observe.

Support matters.

Both schools and participants are backed throughout the journey.

Long-term fit matters.

The goal is not short-term cover, but sustainable staffing that works.

When the right person is in the right role, the impact is immediate.

Teachers feel supported. Pupils receive better attention. Classrooms run more effectively.

Support Stars Academy is about creating more of those moments - consistently, across schools and trusts.

It is about building a pipeline of support staff who are not only capable, but committed to education.

Whether you are a school looking to strengthen your team or an individual ready to begin a career in education, Support Stars Academy offers a smarter, stronger way forward.

This is where future Teaching Assistants are developed.

This is where schools find support they can rely on.

This is where potential becomes impact.

Whether you are from a school or trust looking for staff or an individual looking for school jobs, we want to hear from you.
