Why county by county

ClassCover works best when schools and subs are in the same area.

A booking platform only works when there are enough substitute teachers nearby to fill the gaps. That is why we are rolling out county by county, building a strong teacher network in each area before expanding.

Your application helps us understand where the demand is strongest. The areas with the most school interest will be the first to launch.
