Zen Educate

We're building a fairer and more ethical alternative to traditional recruitment 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 special education paraprofessionals:
- 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

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