Staff Management

Recording staff data is not the same as managing capacity. Schools often learn about overloaded educators or uncovered classes on the day.

Core features

What it covers

Records

  • Educator & non-educator records
  • Qualifications
  • Contracts & reference data
  • School assignments

Capacity

  • Class & subject allocations
  • Teaching workload
  • Leave
  • Substitution

Development

  • Professional development
  • HR administration
  • Performance conversations

Intelligence

Proactively detects educator overload and uncovered periods, and suggests substitutes by qualification, availability and workload for a manager to approve.

Integrations

Designed to integrate with payroll and HR systems rather than replace them.

Workflow example

Illustrative Data

An educator’s approved leave affects 14 periods. Impacted classes are identified and three eligible substitutes are suggested; the deputy principal approves coverage.

Outcomes

  • Fewer lost teaching periods
  • Fairer workload distribution
  • Visible capacity gaps
Control model

Records become accountable work

Design intentions, not independently verified operational controls.

Ownership & permissions
Assigned Principals, HODs, HR administrators, Educators work only within authorised tenant, programme and record scopes.
Rules & approvals
Required evidence, policy versions, delegated authority and independent review gate consequential changes. Missing evidence returns to the owner.
Audit & reporting
Record who changed what, when and why. Measure evidence completeness, queue age, approval turnaround and unresolved exceptions rather than invent performance results.
