We use CPOMS for monitoring child protection, safeguarding and a whole range of pastoral and welfare issues. Working alongside our existing safeguarding processes, CPOMS is an intuitive system to help with the management and recording of child protection, behavioural issues, bullying, special educational needs, domestic issues and much much more. By using CPOMS, we can ensure that students are safe and fully supported.
Every member of staff across the Centre has an obligation to report any concerns which they may have. CPOMS allows us to record information in a central repository and have relevant people alerted immediately. Senior leaders are able to build a chronology around a student and can produce reports on vulnerable pupil groups for Case Conference Meetings, Governors, Ofsted, Estyn and ISI at the touch of a button.
