For Teachers

The difference Our Technology Makes

WITHOUT OUR TECHNOLOGY

Manual Headcounts

Multiple manual headcounts needed throughout the day, often in noisy or crowded environments

Child Drifting

Children can easily drift away unnoticed in busy areas between headcounts

Activity Interruption

Teachers must stop activity to count pupils breaking focus and flow of the trip

Manual Tracking

Heavy reliance on memory, visual scanning and paper lists

WITH OUR TECHNOLOGY

Continuous Monitoring

Continuous automatic monitoring- alerts only when a child moves out of range

Immediate Alerts

Immediate audible, vibration and on-screen alert naming the child who has wandered and optionally showing photo

Uninterrupted Activities

Teachers stay engaged with activities- only interrupted if there’s a potential safety issue

Digital Registration

Digital registration with names and optional photos makes identification instant

For Parents

Benefits for Schools- Safety, Compliance and Reputation

Child Wandering

Relying solely on teachers spotting a child wandering

Monitoring/Supervision

Manual headcounts at set intervals- possible gaps in between

Environmental Challenges

Increased risk in busy or noisy environments like stations or museums

Strengthens Safeguarding Measures

  • Supports a school’s duty of care under the Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) statutory guidance.
  • Aligns with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) expectations for risk management on school trips.
  • Adds a documented, proactive safety measure that can be shown to Ofsted, governors, and parents.

Enhances Risk Assessment Compliance

  • Acts as a control measure in Educational Visits Risk Assessments (following OEAP National Guidance).
  • Reduces the likelihood of incidents during off-site visits — and the consequences if one occurs.
  • Provides a clear, auditable process for pupil registration and monitoring.

Reduces Liability and Reputational Risk

  • Shows evidence that the school took reasonable steps to protect pupils.
  • Minimises potential legal claims in the event of an incident.
  • Builds trust with parents and the wider community.

Operational Efficiency

  • Reduces the workload of staff during trips by cutting down on repeated manual headcounts.
  • Input pupils (class year, name etc) direct from your MIS. No manual typing.

Boosts Parental Confidence

  • Demonstrates a commitment to exceeding the minimum safeguarding requirements.
  • Reassures parents that their children are being monitored with the latest, proven safety technology.

Fits Seamlessly Into Existing Procedures

  • Can be included in the school’s Educational Visits Policy without major changes to staffing or processes.
  • Works alongside other safety measures like high-visibility vests, adult-to-pupil ratios, and buddy systems.

Real-Life Examples of Problems & How We Help Prevent Them

Museum or Exhibition Crowds

Problem: A child lags behind in a busy museum, moving unnoticed into a different gallery.

Prevention: Alerts staff if a child strays too far from the group in crowded areas.

Train Travel

Problem: A pupil moves into another carriage without telling anyone.

Prevention: Signals if a pupil moves beyond the set distance on a train.

Outdoor Attractions or Zoos

Problem: A student follows an animal display and loses their group

Prevention: Triggers an instant alert so staff can bring them back before they’re too far away.

City Street Walks

Problem: A pupil stops to look in a shop window and the group walks on.

Prevention: Warns when a pupil falls out of range on a busy street.
