Zen Educate

About this app

We're building a fairer and more ethical alternative to traditional supply agencies, taking out the hassle — no more paperwork — and the waste — leaving more for the teachers and the pupils.

Use our app to...

For teachers, teaching assistants and cover supervisors:
- manage your teaching profile for how you show up to schools
- manage your calendar to set when you want to work and when you don't
- accept or decline offers for work from schools
- see your past work

For schools:
- search for fully-vetted and interviewed teachers, teaching assistants or cover supervisors and request them for work
- save your preferred teachers, check their availability and rebook them for future work
- manage and confirm timesheets

Ratings and reviews

very good agency. Management is helpful. They will give you many teaching assignments when you are new. Their computer system and paying system is great and easy to navigate. Good place to work. Thank you.

Easy app to use, love the calendar, loads of useful information on it and suggested training.

while I appreciate the work i have received from zen educate communication poses a problem I send my consultant an email and till now she hasn't responded. I have been receiving constant work so I can't complain about that .
