“Taking appropriate action at the right moment is crucial for student safety. Our research shows that most schools lack the tools to connect visitor information with existing safeguarding data, leaving gaps that can compromise student wellbeing. Schools should act now to adopt comprehensive security measures, including advanced visitor management systems, that bridge this gap by providing integrated solutions to enhance security and strengthen safeguarding.”
