We’re an online platform connecting schools with supply staff. To date, we’ve saved schools over £14M! 👩🏻🏫
About us
At Zen our mission is to change the world of education recruitment. Schools spend over £2bn a year on agency staff, with over £600m per year of that spent on fees that go straight to recruitment agencies. So far, we've saved UK schools over £25m in supply teaching recruitment costs, and that number grows every day, allowing schools to invest further into children’s wellbeing and attainment. We're not just redefining recruitment; we’re upskilling our supply staff to provide the highest quality teachers and TAs to schools. Each supply staff member is Level 2 Safeguarding trained, guaranteeing the safety and wellbeing of children in your school. Using our online platform, schools can access hundreds of fully vetted high-quality teacher & TA profiles, who they can book instantly at the click of a button. We don't stop at just providing a platform – we have a dedicated school success team here to support you every step of the way. When you succeed, we succeed!

We're proud to support Henry Cavendish Primary School and are looking forward to our continued partnership. ✨
When you think of the word 'school', it's regularly followed by the word 'budget'. More than ever, schools are forced to think hard about how to best allocate limited funding to support their children in achieving their goals - this is not an easy task. With creativity and tenacity to try things differently to fund these goals, schools can thrive in a challenging industry and one continues to do just that. Lorna Burg, the Director of Business and Finance at Henry Cavendish Primary School has not only been a part of the school being the mother of her two boys who were pupils here, to now entering her 32nd year working at the school, she has launched a school built, owned and run coffee shop. With her husband Warren, the Lead Premises Manager, they have created something truly remarkable from self built furniture, to donations as well as up-cycling resources from the school. Today is the first day of the soft launch and Zen Educate have been partners with the school and Lorna for over 5 years, so it feels right to be here on the first day of an exciting chapter. Henry's Coffee Stop aims to use earnings from this venture to go back towards the school and first and foremost, the children - An ethos that Zen Educate and Henry Cavendish have always shared. We need more schools like Henry Cavendish and more people like Lorna to have the fire to try things differently and with that, if you're near Balham, swing by - Alex the Barista makes a great flat white! - "Your coffee, their future. Every penny goes to support our children's education.'"
