Continuity is at the heart of everything we do
CoverMyClass was founded to solve one of the most broken processes in UK education: what happens when a teacher is absent.
Cover lessons are broken
When a teacher is absent, schools face zero-notice chaos. Cover teachers arrive with no context. Students know it's a "wasted lesson." Learning stops — and weeks of education are lost every year across UK schools.
Cover teachers are reduced to crowd control. Teachers feel guilty about being absent. School leaders spend their mornings firefighting instead of leading.
Professionalism, not babysitting
CoverMyClass transforms cover lessons from chaotic babysitting into seamless educational continuity. Teachers create clear plans quickly. Cover staff arrive prepared. Students keep learning. And teachers return to a clean handover.
We believe a teacher's absence should never mean a student's learning stops.
What drives us
Premium quality
Every feature meets the highest design and usability standards. "Good enough" is never acceptable when it comes to education.
Empathy for all
We design for teachers, cover teachers, coordinators, and school leaders equally. Every stakeholder deserves tools that respect their role.
Security first
GDPR compliance isn't a checkbox — it's foundational. We protect school data with the same seriousness we'd want for our own children's schools.
