READ MORE STATEMENT OF COMPANY AIMS, PRINCIPLES & PRACTICE Compass have a highly experienced and professional group of staff dedicated to the welfare of our students. Compass Education was founded as part of Linx Education, with offices in Watford (UK) and throughout mainland China, Linx has been operating a student recruitment and placement service for over 20 years. During this time the need for a pastoral care aspect of the business has grown significantly. Initially working in the University Sector, a gradual move to school and College placement led to the provision of full Guardianship Services and the foundation of Compass Education. We operate principally in London and the South East of England. Our Directors are highly experienced in UK education and the pastoral care of international students. We have a team of caring professionals who work closely with our partner schools and host families and are fully trained in safeguarding, all dedicated to providing a safe and caring environment for our students and a high quality standard of service that ensures our parents can enjoy peace of mind. TESTIMONIALS We were really nervous about our daughter heading off to school in London for her A level studies. Even though we had both studied in UK ourselves, we still felt scared. Compass have been wonderful at keeping us very well informed and connected to our daughter. They were particularly excellent when we were trying to help choose a University. We were always made to feel very welcome when we contacted them. I strongly recommend tem to any family sending their child to study in UK. A level student parents, Shanghai We have been a Host Family with Compass for a number of years now. We have some wonderful memories of our time looking after students. We have many friends now across the world and I would strongly recommend becoming a Host Family if you are thinking of it.

Education Recruitment is Broken The current system is set-up around an inherent conflict of interest between agencies and the education system. Recruiters are completely driven by their commission. The more they charge schools and the less they pay teachers, the more they take home. This creates a market that fails to do right by the education system. Most worryingly, it also introduces the temptation for unsavoury business practices that are exacerbated by the lack of qualifications required to be an education recruiter or the lack of regulation required to run an agency. It is time for a change 15 years ago it would have been unheard of to book a restaurant or hotel online, today it is rare to book either of those two by phone. Arranging cover for schools will follow this trend shortly. The use of an online platform allows for a level of transparency and efficiency that revolutionises the system - schools will be able to see the pool of available supply teachers by proximity and skills instantly at the click of a button, instead of seeing only a limited group of teachers found via many phone calls in the morning that is inefficient and time-consuming. Zen Educate As experienced technology entrepreneurs, and having a passion for improving education, we started Zen Educate to lead the wave of interventions that the education system deserves. Schools spend over £1.3bn a year on agency staff. Over £300m per year of that is wasted as fees that go straight to the recruitment agencies. That’s money that could be going back to schools! Worse yet, there are layers of hidden costs from the inefficient time tracking and payment process to the overstaffing that schools have had to rely on because of the frustration of working with agencies. “We always overestimate the change that will occur in the next two years and underestimate the change that will occur in the next ten” — Bill Gates We’re on a mission to change the world of education recruitment and will work tirelessly to do so.
