Milk Academy Avis 

I just started working with milk education. So far it is brillient. Especially, Ellie was extremely helpful and reassuring.

Apply for work with this company as a chef teacher in a local centre for children with learning difficulties and issues. I did load of qualifications, about teaching techniques and such which I expected to do. However didn't take the job because the salary was too low. Sam who was very supportive said that they could do something with me in secondary schools, which I was more than happy to do while all this has been going on they're compliancee team continually sent emails up to two to three a day saying I had not completed the registration paperwork which I had plus provided references and qualifications.
However I thought something good was going to come out of it two weeks ago was asked for more referencing which was happy to comply.
A little bit of the background I've only been in the industry 47 years in education since 2005 working with children from nursery age to 18 year olds with full DBS clearance experience of Man management and a person will trainer,as well as a group trainer for adults in the catering industry.
I have also been an experienced head chef plus chef manager, I have chased this company up Time After Time, phone call after phone call email after email.
No answers Will one of the assistants in there never even answered my email.
This morning I have spoken with Sam to find out that they say I do not have the relevant qualifications and could not possibly offer me work these people live in a glass house they're compliances completely up the wall they do not know what they are talking about even Sam who may say has been very supportive it's totally appalled, I am so angry why have I wasted nearly two months chasing these people anybody out there please think twice before getting involved with this company they're compliancee team seems like a complete or to joke, and completely out of touch with the reality of the job they're meant to be doing.
I would not waste your time applying for work with this company.

The consultant was polite, friendly, and very professional.
The process was clearly explained and easy to follow. Sam was supportive and patient in answering my question, making sure I would come out of the conversation with no doubts about the company concept.

I started work with Milk education a few weeks ago.
The individual (Danielle Armstrong) who gave me work has been more than helpful ensuring that I put my timesheets in on time and has guided me through the whole process.
She is always available for any questions I have and checks that I am happy in the roles I have undertaken.
She's very pleasant and doesn't fail in doing her job well.
I have no complaints about the company and hope to gain more work from them.

I have recently registered with Milk education and I have worked closely with Hayley who focuses on the Wigan area. I have been looking for part time work around the Wigan area which is flexible and Hayley has supported me through the process of achieving this. The signing up process was simple and straightforward, especially with the help of Hayley. The phone call and teams meeting with Hayley made me feel at ease and she was very welcoming and easy to talk to. There is lots of advice and support at Milk Education and I am excited to start my journey with them.

i had an initial phonecall with ellie, this was an extremely positive call that went on for ages!

we spent lots of time getting to know eachother which makes my profile feel even more personal.

quick , efiicient and kind

Inadequate and uninformed recruitment personnel especially Helen Brereton and compliance team. Total waste of time.

Caroline has been amazing through out this onboarding process. Talked me through step by step and made me feel at ease. Very approachable

As I have only just recently completed my PGCE, I was nervous to join up with an agency and to begin my career. Steph was so welcoming and supportive throughout the whole registration process and made me feel at ease and confident in my practice. I was delighted at the quick turn around as I was able to work as soon as all the correct documentation had come through. I then had a chat with Ryan who would be allocating schools to me. He is always calm and cheerful which makes me feel more confident going into a days work. Ryan checked in with me at the end of the day which I really appreciated as it shows he cared about how my experience was. Overall, I am very happy to be with Milk Education and feel supported and excited for what the future holds.

I had an excellent experience registering with the agency, thanks to Michael Brennan. From the start, Michael was professional, thorough, and attentive. He took the time to carefully read through my CV and asked all the right questions to ensure my registration was complete and accurate. His proactive approach and genuine enthusiasm to get the ball rolling made the entire process smooth and efficient. I'm truly grateful for his support and look forward to working with him in the near future. Highly recommended!

I recently signed up for Milk Education and was greeted by Caroline, she has such a bright and bubbly energy and she made registering super easy! Highly recommended!

I signed up to milk earlier this year, Lucie was so friendly on the phone and helped me through the whole process, explaining clearly how it would all work. Thanks Lucie!

I recently interviewed with Milk Education as a SEN Assistant, I had a great experience from the start to finish.

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing exceptional customer service, and I felt compelled to share my positive feedback. From the moment I reached out, the team demonstrated professionalism, attentiveness, and a genuine desire to assist. They were prompt in responding to my inquiries, thoroughly explaining my options, and offering tailored solutions that met my needs. What truly stood out was their patience and willingness to go above and beyond to ensure my complete satisfaction. Every interaction was handled with care and respect, making the entire process smooth and hassle-free. It’s rare to encounter such high-quality service, and I truly appreciate the effort and dedication the team put into making my experience memorable. I highly recommend this service to others and look forward to future interactions.”

I spoke to a woman named libbie and she was amazing she was very friendly and helpful if I needed to ask any questions. If I needed help on something she would explain it and help me to do it. Couldn’t ask for a better person to interview me. The milk education is amazing.

Being new to applying for work through an agency, I was concerned that this would prove daunting, but I was so fortunate to be in the capable hands of a 'Talent Executive' who had such a positive and encouraging attitude that I felt reassured and more relaxed throughout the application process. This enabled me to have a more confident interview and feel that I was providing a good account of my abilities. An excellent representative of the company.

Have only just come across milk education last couple days , I got contacted by lucie who works for milk education by phone call, we had a chat about what the company is about and what they do for people that need jobs, then u arrange a face to face meeting and you explain what your experience is job wise and what your looking for when it comes to work,the application is also very easy to do, this company is very good

I got an interview through milk academy. Luke was great he really helped was there whenever I needed him. He helped me when I needed with the application form answering any questions I had. Really appreciate it.

I have been working with Milk Education since September 2024. The registration process was pretty quick and easy. My senior primary executive Emma Dring has been great as she managed to secure me three days of work each week for half a term which has now been extended in a school that I enjoy working for. If there have been any issues, she has dealt with them quickly and efficiently. Emma has clearly understood my needs as she has found me a school that suits my needs and expectations. I highly recommend Milk Education to other Supply Teachers.

Awful awful company. Completely ruined my finances this year.
I got a role as a TA for SEND students. I asked if I needed training. They said I didn't, which I definitely DID. Was completely over my head and was attacked by two students while no staff helped. I asked if I could get a new role with primary students and have more training. I waited patiently while getting cover roles. However, this was still sparse and I was struggling financially. They promised me a full time role after half term so I got a job as a waitress to keep my head afloat. I waited and when half term was finished they would call me every monday for nearly a month letting me know that the role wasn't going ahead that week BUT for me to keep waiting....

I can't even put into words how stressful this was as the waitress role was only temporary. Not to mention the woman at MILK ED was SO infuriating to talk to when I was obviously stressed.

Anyway I got another job and they dragged on getting me a reference for MONTHS. I nearly lost the next job and I just couldn't believe how unorganised and unbothered they were. My new manager ended up calling them for an over the phone reference....

I suffered financially and emotionally during this time. It makes me very confused when I see good reviews as I had such a bad experience. I was also very excited to start this kind of job.
