Nurture Education Australia

Nurture Education Australia is an education recruitment agency that connects teachers and education support staff with schools in Victoria and South Australia. It is based in Collingwood, Victoria, and describes itself as a smaller agency. Its consultants have taught in Melbourne and London, and it has an affiliate office in London for teachers and support staff seeking work in the UK.

In Victoria it fills casual relief teaching (CRT), fixed-term and permanent roles, and in South Australia fixed-term and permanent roles. It works across primary, secondary and special needs education, placing graduate and pre-service teachers, established teachers, learning support and integration aides, and senior leadership staff. Registration is free for candidates, who meet a consultant in the office or online and complete compliance checks before work is offered. The agency says it carries out initial and ongoing vetting, including safeguarding and qualification checks.

For schools, it supplies CRT, short-term and long-term cover, and school contracts or permanent staff. It can advertise a school's vacancies, create a shortlist for the school's panel and complete references alongside its vetting.
