Meet the Teaching Agency in Liverpool and Wirral
Our Academics teaching agency in Liverpool & Wirral team is lucky enough to have two teacher recruitment offices; one in the heart of Liverpool and the other in Hooton, ensuring that they can cover the Merseyside region in the most effective manner. They work with a whole host of schools from the Wirral up to Sefton and Knowsley. They are partnered very closely with our Warrington teaching agency team, to ensure they have best selection of teachers and support staff possible. They currently specialise in covering both the Primary and Secondary sectors, supplying Teachers, Teaching Assistants and other Support Staff into both daily supply teaching, long term supply and also permanent teaching jobs and support roles.
Laura Evans
I joined the Academics Wirral team in March 2023 and is our Special Educational Needs Consultant; recruiting the best supply teachers, teaching assistants, and education staff for local SEN schools and provisions.
Before joining Academics, I worked in mainstream and SEN education for almost 17 years and I am now able to use this experience to help schools support children with additional needs across the area. I am very passionate about alternative and SEN education having first-hand experience of what a challenging sector it can be and relishes the opportunity to ensure that our schools and supply staff are supported to be the best they can be.
Outside of work, I love spending time with my family and fur-baby Archie. I like being outdoors as much as possible – either going for a long walk or spending time in the garden. When I get the chance, I enjoy spending my time on the water either sailing, kayaking, or rowing.

He says it’s an absolute pleasure to work with fantastic Teachers, Teaching Assistants and education staff, and amazing schools across the region. If you’re a school or trust that wants to find your next amazing colleague, then give Carl a call, he’d be happy to chat.
Before Academics, Carl worked at a whole range of universities across the UK, supporting students to get into the next steps of their educational journey, leading teams to support schools across the UK to get their students into fabulous Higher Education Institutions, providing talks, workshops, events and leading on recruitment strategy and marketing.

Outside of work Carl loves a good project, particularly DIY; travel – whether that’s city breaks around Europe or a lovely relaxing beach holiday; painting; and music – writing, listening and playing as a guitarist and singer.
