Working in a School or College is exciting, rewarding and provides a different challenge every day. The children and young adults that attend your Educational place of work are vulnerable, bright, intelligent and relying on you and your colleagues to educate them and keep them safe. All Schools and Colleges must have a policy in place regarding Health, Safety and Security so that they can respond quickly to any incident.  Alongside a Safeguarding policy any security plan must compliment and run coherently so that all students are fully protected from threats, abuse and danger. Recording all visitors to your School or College can be a time consuming, arduous and tedious role.  There is however an easy way to keep these details safe and secure apart from manually writing them down into a visitor log book.  There are several different companies that can provide a Visitor Management System.

From Infants to Juniors, to Secondary and on to College young people love to have visitors to their place of education.  The change from the normal daily school routine is anticipated and enjoyed.  The buzz of excitement that visitors bring creates a new sense of anticipation to a lesson and the class are eager to learn from their new “teachers”.
