Why schools & trusts love our education-specific HR tools
It never felt like we were just buying a product. It was more like, ‘We’re here to work with you. What do you need?’
Staff can log in and download their payslips, access holiday requests and log overtime within just a few clicks. Previously this would have been done manually over email and it was incredibly inefficient.
There's definitely a reduced workload, and the automation of tasks has been a big benefit.
We needed a solution that streamlined our processes and saved us time, money, and effort. Access Education delivered all of that and more.
