Visitor management for safer schools
Safeguarding starts the moment someone arrives at your school.
Sign In App helps schools, colleges, and multi-academy trusts replace paper visitor books with a visitor management system that supports KCSIE compliance and reduces administrative workload.
Verify visitors, manage DBS checks, integrate with your MIS, and maintain a real-time view of who is on site - all from one platform.

Safeguarding shouldn't depend on a paper visitor book
The Department for Education's Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) guidance requires schools to have appropriate safeguarding and visitor management procedures in place to help protect pupils and staff. Yet many schools still rely on manual processes that make visitor tracking, record keeping, and compliance harder than they need to be.
Sign In App gives safeguarding leads, school business managers, and office teams a clear, real-time view of everyone on site while automating key compliance processes.
Because stronger safeguarding shouldn't create more administration.
