A Real Day in the Life… With the Discounts for Teachers App

A full-on day in education deserves a few wins — and with the Discounts for Teachers app, you’ll get them. From £10 coffees to 20% off lunch, here’s how one busy day can add up to big savings (and slightly fewer breakdowns).

What does a real day in education look like with the Discounts for Teachers app in your pocket?

Short answer: still chaotic. Still caffeine-fuelled. But now, sprinkled with savings.

We’re not pretending you’re gliding down the corridor, latte in one hand, flawless lesson plan in the other (and if you are — please drop your TED Talk).

Reality? You’re juggling twelve things before 9AM, running on coffee, and clutching five precious minutes wherever you can. That’s where the app steps in — with real money off, surprise perks, and everyday pick-me-ups that help make your day feel a little less full-on… and a lot more rewarding.

Because making a difference shouldn’t cost your entire payslip.

Here’s what a day in the life could look like with the Discounts for Teachers app.
Spoiler: it’s your day — just with more wins, and way less spend.
