International School Testimonial: Morrison Academy

About Morrison Academy

Founded in 1952 to serve the children of missionaries, Morrison Academy is a Christian international school in Taiwan offering American educational programs in a distinctively Christian environment. With joint accreditation from ACSI and WASC, Morrison delivers a values-driven education that fosters academic excellence and spiritual growth.

Morrison Academy is recognised by the Taiwanese government as an international school and is home to a predominantly U.S. citizen student body. The school continues to serve the expat community with a strong emphasis on quality teaching and character development.

We spoke with Alicia Edwards, Director of Human Resources, about Morrison’s experience using Schrole Connect, now part of Staff Management, to strengthen their recruitment efforts.

The challenge

Morrison Academy was looking to increase the number of qualified candidates in its recruitment pool. With a growing need to build a strong hiring pipeline, they turned to us for a targeted solution.

“We were trying to get more qualified candidates in our pool.”

Connect/Staff Management was the perfect fit, giving Morrison Academy access to the world’s largest pool of teaching talent, with over 630,000 qualified educators specialising in UK, US, and IB curricula.

Choosing us

Alicia explains that Connect/Staff Management stood out due to its robust candidate database and clean, user-friendly interface designed specifically for international schools – key factors in choosing a recruitment partner.

“We were convinced by the database and the easy-to-use platform.”

With features that make it easy to view candidate details, compare qualifications, and manage communications in one place, Morrison Academy found the simplicity and functionality they were after.

Achieving results

Since implementing Connect/Staff Management, Morrison Academy has seen a noticeable improvement in the size and quality of its candidate pool. The platform has also allowed the school to strategically build its recruitment pipeline, making it easier to plan for future hiring needs.

“We now have more candidates in our recruitment pool and the ability to build our pipeline.”

While Morrison already had a strong internal applicant tracking system, Connect/Staff Management has complemented their processes by offering access to high-quality candidates who meet the school’s expectations.

“The quality of candidates has definitely met my expectations.”

A recommendation for other schools

Alicia believes Connect/Staff Management is a solid option for schools with a recruitment budget looking to expand their reach and candidate pool.

“If you have a budget for recruiting, absolutely give Connect/Staff Management a go!”

With an 8/10 recommendation rating, Morrison Academy’s experience highlights Connect/Staff Management as a valuable tool for schools focused on attracting qualified international educators.
