The team at Class are sometimes asked by clients why our nursery recruitment experts have been based in Bristol since 2009.
Bristol is the 11th-largest city in the UK, and is also the South West hub when it comes to business. It is also a vital centre for the Early Years sector.
When Class Recruitment was launched in Clifton, our nursery recruitment experts made a conscious and focused commitment to Bristol as our base.
In 2009, there were more colleges providing students who wanted to work in childcare across Bristol. More candidates are coming into the sector regionally now through the apprenticeship route.
College courses are a good option for those looking to integrate different work placement options in various nurseries across the city, and our nursery recruitment experts in Bristol have superb relationships with nursery owners.
Nursery settings in different BS-based postcodes have changed since 2009.
In the past, some had walls covered in colourful murals and very visual, active walls. Today, most are calmer with less visual distraction on the walls and neutral colours, to mirror the home environment.
In 2009, the UK was being hit with economic recession, but the Early Years sector in the city remained remarkably resilient.
Our nursery recruitment experts work with a large number of independent nurseries across Bristol, and many of them actually grew during the recession.
Although there were more qualified Early Years students in the region during 2009, Bristol remains a positive place for candidates to enjoy a great career.
Class founder Karen Howe commented: "There is a fantastic variety of nurseries in Bristol, and the city has been a brilliant base for us since 2009. There have been many changes in the Early Years sector, but the region remains a great choice for nursery owners and nursery workers alike."
