Overview

CPOMS is a safeguarding software platform used by more than 19,000 schools to manage child protection and wellbeing. It offers modular, cloud-based tools: CPOMS StudentSafe for pupil wellbeing, CPOMS StaffSafe for adult records and the Single Central Record, and CPOMS Engage for secure sharing of safeguarding information. The system allows schools to upload, record, and govern information about students and staff, build timeliness chronologies, and automate cross-setting sharing through the CPOMS Share Contract, reducing administrative burden. Compared with competitors, CPOMS differentiates itself by tightly integrating safeguarding across schools and related settings (social care, CME, EHE, virtual school) with customizable workflows and a large established user base. Its goal is to help schools protect children more effectively and streamline safeguarding processes while maintaining secure data sharing.
