Speed

10 to fix41
  • Improve image delivery

    1.2 s · 812 KiB

    18 images could be 812 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

  • framerusercontent.com adds 1.6 s

    1.6 s

    framerusercontent.com costs a phone 1.6 s of main-thread work and 1.6 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Mobile performance score: 41

    41/100

    Your mobile performance score is 41 (desktop: 86). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 5.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 3,681 HTML elements

    The page has 3,681 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (framerusercontent.com, Google Tag Manager and Trust Pilot and others), adding 2.3 MB and 2.7 s of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 913 ms

    913 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 913 ms of main-thread work and 526 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    600 ms · 319 KiB

    About 319 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    300 ms · 79 KiB

    7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (79 KiB).

  • 17 long tasks on the main thread

    17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 322 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 86 but mobile only 41. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • Chained critical requests

    Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    4 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 4 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 25 ms

    25 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 25 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 8.6 s

    8.6 s

    Your largest element takes 8.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Find teaching jobs you love across 2,000+ UK schools”.

  • Time to Interactive: 14.2 s

    14.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 14.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.6 s

    8.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 964 ms

    964 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 964 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.0 s

    3.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 17% slower for real visitors

    +17%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 147 ms to 177 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.7 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Real visitors wait 1.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 155 ms

    155 ms

    Real visitors wait 155 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.1 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 469 ms

    469 ms

    Real visitors wait 469 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix78
  • Page weight: 2.4 MB in 91 requests

    2.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 91 requests on a phone: images 1.1 MB (26), scripts 1.0 MB (40) and fonts 206 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 13 images below the first screen load straight away

    13 images further down the page (879 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 2 images in older formats

    2 images (322 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.68 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 81.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9195
  • ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name (1 element)

    ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (61 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 61 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 8 links without text

    8 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 116 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 37 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 41 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 37 passed and 4 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 10076
  • Title is long (68 characters)

    Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Teaching Jobs, Supply Teaching & TA Jobs Across the UK | Zen Educate”.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • 4 H1 headlines

    There are 4 <h1> headlines (“Find teaching jobs you love across 2,000+ UK scho…”, “Find teaching jobs you love across 2,000+ UK scho…” and “Find teaching jobs you love across 2,000+ UK scho…”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (232 characters)

    Your meta description is 232 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 241 internal links, 99 external

    The homepage links to 241 pages on zeneducate.com and 99 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.zeneducate.com/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.zeneducate.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

3 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

    Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,863 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.zeneducate.com/llms.txt (4 KiB, 30 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix98
  • 14 pages share a meta description

    https://www.zeneducate.com/jobs/teaching-assistant, https://www.zeneducate.com/jobs/teacher, https://www.zeneducate.com/jobs/cover-supervisor, https://www.zeneducate.com/jobs/invigilator, https://www.zeneducate.com/jobs/sen-school and https://www.zeneducate.com/jobs/primary and 8 others use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 55 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    66 of 73 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix79
  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 4 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • No risk reducer

    No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

  • About 736 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 736 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Sign Up”.

  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Sign Up”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Hotjar.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 4 email links.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

  • 10 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at zeneducate.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
