Whatâs good about Zen is that they send you jobs on the app so you can look at them and you can look at the schools before you accept, pick and choose where you want to go. The way forward for working!

If the online sign up isnât working as it should for you then you can email your CV and a short description of what youâre looking for to our team at teachwithus@zeneducate.com and weâll be in touch.
To make sure youâre getting bookings perfect for you, we will invite you to a 30-minute online interview with our team to learn about your experience, preferences and why youâre passionate about working in education. You can do this through any smartphone or computer. If youâd prefer to interview in person at our office, just let us know. Recent regulation changes require us to see your documents for your right to work in the UK in person. This takes no more than 5 minutes, dropping by our offices in London or Manchester.
If youâre not ready to find another role, or, youâre definitely still welcome to sign up. Registering with us and letting us know what youâre looking for will help us to get in touch with you about roles you may be interested in!

We help Teachers, Teaching Assistants, and Cover Supervisors find work. We work with all types of schools and help with short-term, long-term and permanent roles. Many of our long-term roles convert to permanent roles. We make it far easier than a traditional agency for teachers to convert temporary positions into permanent ones.
We work with over 400 schools in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Leeds.
Generally speaking, we have consistently high demand for daily supply teachers in Greater London, Manchester Birmingham, Bristol and Leeds. Teaching assistant work is generally higher for long-term roles rather than daily supply cover.
Yes. We can help with daily supply and long-term jobs in nurseries, primary schools and secondary schools. We donât typically have jobs in further education or college.
While the majority of our work is for teachers and teaching assistants, we do also have work for cover supervisors and invigilators. Explain what you are looking for when you sign up and our team will help you.
We cover all subjects taught in primary and secondary schools - if youâre not sure if we can help you with what youâre looking for, please register and arrange to speak to a member of our Teacher Success team.
If youâre looking for teaching or teaching assistant roles, and would also be interested in admin roles, itâs worth letting us know. If youâre only looking for admin roles, we might not be the place for you, as this isn't what we specialise in.
Zen Educate is a technology platform to connect teachers with schools directly. Agencies are an expensive middleman between schools and teachers. They have to charge high commissions because their booking procedures are largely manual and run on outdated systems. Because we run more of the process online or on your phone, we create an experience that delights schools and teachers at a fraction of the cost.
Start a conversation on chat or email support@zeneducate.com and our friendly team will get back to you shortly.
