Our Comments
When working with schools, our consultants come across many concerns.
Documentation Organisation
With a multitude of compliance information needing organising, tracking and diarising, many schools report that their compliance documents are over the place. Many report the use of share drives or excels spreadsheets.
Action Management
When the requirement to remain compliant is so often time specific, actions not being picked up, missed or not being closed off in time can cause stress and unnecessary risk.
Dated Technologies
Many schools report that the technologies used or the systems in place are archaic. The use of such systems to monitor and manage compliance and their actions can often cause delays and confusion. All schools need to evidence their compliance with an audit trail which is often a timely endeavour.
Reputation
Reputation is very important as accidents & incidents are something everyone wants to avoid, and should they occur, can cause untold numbers of problems for fee paying schools.
With concerns like these it is essential that any chosen solution tackles all concerns comprehensively, safely and securely.
