Strategic Acquisition Horizon Teachers has recently become part of the Operam Education Group following multiple announcements in July 2024, signaling a shift in backing, potential access to larger networks, and new cross-sell opportunities with Operam’s portfolio and schools.

Expansion Potential With the acquisition by a larger education group and ongoing operations in London and the South East, there is potential to scale staffing services beyond current markets, leveraging Operam’s resources to expand primary, secondary, and SEND staffing solutions.

Training Value The firm emphasizes Continuing Professional Development and free regular workshops for teachers and support staff, creating upsell opportunities for premium CPD programs, certifications, and ongoing talent development packages to districts and schools.

Safer Recruitment Horizon positions safety and high standards as core drivers, offering a sales angle to schools seeking compliant, vetted staffing solutions, and potential bundles around safeguarding training, background checks, and ongoing compliance services.

Relationship Network Longstanding relationships with primary, secondary, and SEND schools across London and the South East, plus a background of educators in-house, present cross-selling potential to schools in need of end-to-end staffing, temp-to-perm positions, and succession planning support.
