The Association of School and College Leaders

THE CLIENT

The Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL) is a leading professional association and trade union for all school, college and trust leaders. They’re dedicated to supporting and representing more than 21,500 leaders of primary, secondary and post-16 education from across the UK.

They work to shape national education policy, provide advice and support to their members, while delivering first-class professionalism.

THE CHALLENGE

ASCL required a modern, efficient, and simple solution to welcome their visitors and staff members, whilst also having the ability to analysis and generate evacuation reports, staff working hours and visitor patterns.

The system also needed to offer additional functionality to ensure that they comply with Health and Safety requirements during emergency evacuation procedures.

THE SOLUTION

InVentry provided ASCL with a professional and efficient system which speeds up the sign in process while allowing their organisation to remain compliant at all times. Angela Stewart, Workplace and Facilities Manager, said “our visitor experience has been improved massively. InVentry gives us the ability to analyse who’s on site, while remaining quick and easy to use.”

Using the InVentry Anywhere App, ASCL keep track of who’s on site on the go and ensure they’re constantly aware if there’s a fire evacuation. Angela Stewart commented “The Anywhere App is great for checking on staff members during an emergency evac. The convenience of having the app on your phone allows you to know when there is a fire drill while also allowing us to have a method of meeting Health and Safety requirements.

Angela Stewart, Workplace and Facilities Manager commented:

“We appreciate even the smaller details of InVentry, like already having a interviewee’s details on the system when they become a staff member or even the ability to find the owner of a car via the InVentry system just by searching a car registration, is great when required!” 

“We love utilising the system for large meetings and the option to have a photo on the printed ID badges ensures we always look professional.”
