Zen Educate Reviews 

Super helpful staff, ready to answer queries whenever they arise, and happy always in finding the right schools for me. Lots of good experiences, under their management. Thanks guys! :)

Registration process was quick and straightforward. Staff at local Zen office helpful and approachable. So far the placements have been enjoyable and appropriate for my experience and skill set.

They always show’s professionalism,responsive,helpful answering my any doubts.
A big thanks to the team Sarah, Taj patel, Nimmih,Quinn , Berendon with Whom I have wonderful experience with there advise and assistance.

Excellent planning.
Friendly polite staff
Well behaved children who were eager to learn.

Free of hassle bookings. No morning phone calls from consultants. Instead, bookings received on app. Real Zen experience for me. Consultants very friendly and helpful, genuinely interested in you, and in securing a long term placement.

So far Zen have been by the far the most professional, friendly and slick agency I’ve come across. Their systems just work and everything is seamless.

Too reliant on the app. It would help to be able to speak with someone more easily

Zen Educate offers real flexibility through online booking, and Hollie’s supportive, understanding approach makes the whole experience even better.

"I've absolutely loved working with Zen Educate over the past 3 years! Their support and communication have been top-notch, and they've always gone above and beyond to find me amazing teaching opportunities. The team is super friendly and always on hand to help with any queries. I've had some incredible jobs and made some fantastic connections – thanks for being such a great agency to work with 😊"

The company has been great since I worked for them
They have communicated with me every step of the way and explained everything clearly

Overall great flexible job. Good pay - £16 and hour.

I am generally happy with the service I have from Zen. However, I'd like to have a clear and transparent discussion regarding pay rates and margins so that I can feel assured that I'm being treated fairly. I often feel like I am doing Zen a favour by travelling further than I'm usually happy to and being offered a fiver compensation for driving almost 2 hours in addition to my working day. I strongly feel that supply staff should be compensated for overly long travel times, let alone fuel and wear and tear to vehicles. I am sure there is legislation that covers this.

Zen are understanding and fair. I appreciate the system where work appears as a message on the app. Wait too long though and it will be gone! However, it still gives you the opportunity to think about whether you want the job. I enjoyed my first day with them and I think they pay quite well.

On the 23rd of February 2026, I was sent there as a nursery assistant by Zen Educate.
I enjoyed my first day of work with this nursery very much yesterday. I had a fantastic time at the nursery; I loved working with the children and the entire team. Everything felt so natural and professional—it was as if I had been working there for ten years.
The location was perfect for me as well. Living in South Kensington (SW7), it was only a 20-minute bus ride. Also, I was told they have another branch in Pimlico, which is also very convenient and close to me.
If they need me in the future, i would love to go back again

I’ve had a really positive experience with ZenEducate so far and couldn't be happier with the support I've received. Being based in Leeds, I was looking for an agency that truly understands the local landscape, and they have exceeded my expectations.
​A special mention must go to Nicola Hitan, who has been absolutely brilliant. She has supported me every step of the way, making sure I felt informed and valued throughout the entire process.
​The onboarding experience was incredibly smooth, and the training provided was both helpful and insightful. It gave me genuine confidence and prepared me perfectly for my role. If you're looking for an agency that actually cares about your professional growth, I can't recommend them enough.

It was a great and educative experience!!!
I’m based in Leeds , England
I was supported by Nicola, Pete and Ruweyda throughout my process.

Working with Zen has given me the opportunity to work in different schools and meet with some great people making friends 🧡 its has also built my confidence in so many ways and one thing I love about them is that they always makesure that I get work must of the time. A massive thank you to the whole team of Zen Educate 🙏🏾 🙌 you guys are best 👌

I’ve always found the staff at Zen to be friendly and keen to match me with roles that suit my skill set.

Absolutely Amazing. Best agency I’ve been with they’ve got me work within two weeks. I’m so happy in the job I’m in. Couldn’t thank them enough. Best thing was signing up to Zen

The app is easy to use and a great way to work. A member of staff sometimes follows up with a call to confirm arrival time.
