Agency work after redundancy at the same company

I have just been made redundant and finished on 28/10/11. I was made redundant as the company did not have enough work to be able to employ everyone who worked there. There was me and two other people who ended up getting made redundant.
Today 17/11/11 I have had a phone call from my old employer and they have asked me to go back and work for them for one week but they have said that I would have to sign up with an agency to be able to do this. I am also doing a college course on a Monday and they have told me that I would have to miss that and go in to work. I have turned this offer down but I was wondering if the company is allowed to do this in such a short space of time (less than 3 weeks) after being made redundant and if they are alowed to also hire agency workers aswell and also make me join an agency to be able to work for them.
