Here at did teach we firmly believe that education professionals are defined by reliability, professionalism, project management skill, integrity and resilience.
As successful teachers ourselves we are fully aware of the qualities and capabilities that educators possess. However we are also conscious that many outstanding teachers have ambitions outside of the classroom or want to enrich their experiences with “extra curricular” work. This is where the concept of did teach was born! We understand that it can feel overwhelming finding a new direction if you are considering leaving the teaching profession and that there is no single place for organisations to connect with you. So you can use our experience and connections to help you make the next steps to be successful.
We are however still passionate about teaching and it is not our intention to prise outstanding teachers away from the classroom, we simply want to inspire talented people.

Topic: Supply teaching whilst looking for a career change
Organisation: Zen Educate
We have chose to affiliate with Zen Educate as their business model actively saves schools and teachers money
Zen Educate is an online platform that is transforming the supply teaching experience for teachers. Supply work is a well-established route chosen by teachers in between roles, and Zen Educate is the ethical alternative to recruitment agencies that pays teacher more and charges schools less.
How is Zen Educate different from traditional recruitment agencies?
Higher pay – Teachers earn more because Zen Educate cut out traditional agency fees costs.
More control – Choose when you work by sharing your availability through Zen Educate’s app. This is helpful for taking time out for interviews or training opportunities, while still earning.
Smarter matching – Find daily and long-term roles at schools near you based on your preferences, meaning control over your commute time and which schools you work with.
