Staff support

Empower staff with the tools to manage incidents across campuses of any size, with seamless communication and instant access to your college's protocols, so they can focus on educating and supporting students.

In their words

Trusted across education

"Transformational. There are schools and trusts up and down the country facing the challenge of managing incidents across large sites and potentially not even realising that's the solution they need. I think teamSOS is it."

David ReynoldsDeputy Head, Cannock Chase High School

"Using teamSOS has allowed us to keep on top of all behaviour, so we very rarely miss things now. It's allowed us to maintain our high expectations and develop a culture of consistency amongst staff."

James MasonAssistant Head for Behaviour & Culture, Sybil Andrews Academy

"teamSOS cuts out the middleman, so we don't need somebody coordinating responses because it's already prioritised. It's had a real impact on reducing disruption. Our staff are delighted, there's no way we'd go back to our old systems now."

Emma Wilson-DownesHeadteacher, Felixstowe School

"I can sit anywhere in the school and see every behavioural incident being dealt with, and how effectively. teamSOS gives us a data stream that lets us measure how well we are dealing with behaviour, at a level we've never had before."

Jamie EngineerSenior Deputy Headteacher, Isca Academy

"teamSOS gives staff confidence and has dramatically reduced our response times. We would highly recommend it."

Paul EdmundsAssistant Headteacher, Blessed Edward Oldcorne Catholic College

"teamSOS instantly builds teacher confidence and improves class management. The key for us is that teamSOS takes away the isolation you can feel in a classroom."

Richard JohnsonDeputy Principal, Greenwood Academy
