POPULAR QUESTIONS

Why is my password not being accepted when I try to register?

When creating an account, please ensure your password does not include any special characters (e.g. ; ‘ ! ” £ $ % ^ & * ( ) _ + { } : @ ~ < > ? [ ] # , . /). The system cannot accept passwords containing these symbols. Your password must be at least 8 characters long and include at least one uppercase (capital) letter and one number.

Can I unsubscribe from emails if I don’t want to receive alerts?

Yes - to unsubscribe from job alerts, go to the ‘CrinkleMATCH Preferences’ tab, click 'Edit' next to your chosen job category, then scroll down to ‘Notification Preferences’. You will then need to select ‘I do not wish to receive job alerts by email’ to unsubscribe.

Can I apply for a job with my CV?

No – schools are unable to accept CVs for advertised vacancies. Applications need to be completed using the standard online application form which is designed to capture the information required for safer recruitment in education.  Information you will be asked to provide includes a full employment history, safeguarding declarations, and referee contact information. This approach helps ensure a fair process for all applicants and supports schools in meeting their safeguarding responsibilities.

Can you help find me a job in a school?

As Crinkle Recruitment is a jobs board, rather than a recruitment agency, unfortunately we are not able to match you directly with vacancies or place you in employment. However, we can provide access to all advertised positions on our website, which you can browse at any time. On request, we are also happy to review your EASY Profile to help ensure it highlights your strengths and supports your job search.
