Spreadsheet SCRs are a safeguarding risk.

Most schools still manage their Single Central Record on a shared spreadsheet. Expired DBS checks go unnoticed. Inspectors arrive and you're scrambling. One mistake can mean an inadequate rating.

Version chaos

Multiple copies, no single source of truth.

Missed expiries

No automated alerts when checks lapse.

Inspection anxiety

Scrambling to compile records under pressure.

Compliance gaps

Missing checks go undetected for months.

Features

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Purpose-built for schools. Not a generic HR tool with bolted-on compliance.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Is StaffIQ compliant with KCSIE and Ofsted requirements?

Yes. StaffIQ is built specifically to meet Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) requirements. Our SCR format covers all mandatory checks specified by the DfE and Ofsted. The platform is regularly updated when guidance changes.

How secure is our data?

All data is encrypted at rest and in transit. We use PostgreSQL with AES-256 encryption, TLS 1.3 for all connections, and all files are stored in isolated, encrypted cloud storage. We are ICO registered and GDPR compliant.

Can we migrate from our existing spreadsheet SCR?

Absolutely. StaffIQ includes a CSV import tool that maps your existing columns to our fields automatically. Most schools are fully migrated within an afternoon. We also offer assisted migration for Enterprise plans.

Do you support Multi-Academy Trusts?

Yes. Our Enterprise plan is specifically designed for MATs. You get a trust-wide dashboard, cross-school analytics, centralised user management, and the ability to compare compliance across all your schools.

What happens when our trial ends?

Your 14-day trial includes all Professional features. When it ends, you can subscribe to continue, or your account will be set to read-only — no data is deleted. You can export your data at any time.

Can inspectors access our data?

Only through Inspector Mode. You generate a time-limited, read-only link that shows your SCR. The link automatically expires (24h, 48h, or 1 week — your choice), and every access is fully audit-logged. You can revoke a link instantly.
