CPOMS, the UK’s leading provider of safeguarding, wellbeing, and pastoral software, is pleased to announce a new integration with STEER Education, a specialist in student mental health and wellbeing tracking. This partnership enables schools to unite powerful wellbeing data collected by the STEER Tracking online assessment tool, with CPOMS StudentSafe™, giving staff a more complete and actionable view of pupil welfare.
One Integration. Total Visibility. Better Outcomes.
Safeguarding and wellbeing are deeply connected and when schools can monitor both in one secure place, they’re better equipped to intervene earlier and support pupils more effectively. Now, schools using research-driven STEER Tracking can automatically view key pupil insights within CPOMS StudentSafe, helping safeguarding and pastoral teams take informed action without delay. Together, CPOMS and STEER Education are strengthening the foundations of safer UK schools by enabling a more connected, preventative approach to safeguarding.
“It’s vital that staff can access the complete view of a child’s circumstances—quickly, securely, and with full context,” said Rick Gardner, Managing Director of CPOMS. “Our partnership with STEER Education brings critical mental health and wellbeing indicators directly into CPOMS StudentSafe, so schools can support earlier, more proactive safeguarding interventions.”
Identifying Risks and Unveiling Hidden Student Voice
STEER Tracking provides schools with a clear understanding of how pupils are self-regulating across key areas of their lives —such as school, peers, teachers, and self —both on and off the school campus with online assessments. The research-led tool captures the hidden voice of every student each term, helping schools identify vulnerabilities earlier and giving leaders confidence they are meeting their safeguarding responsibilities. With this new integration, safeguarding and pastoral teams can see STEER’s critical 360 data on each student synced to CPOMS StudentSafe’s safeguarding records, eliminating manual data entry, reducing administrative burden, and enabling teams to act on safeguarding data faster.
“Combining CPOMS with STEER finally connects the dots between wellbeing and safeguarding. Teachers need insight at their fingertips- not hidden behind another login,” said Simon Walker, CEO of STEER Education. “STEER’s assessment reveals how students are really doing beneath the surface and CPOMS places that insight in the full context of their pastoral history so staff can solve issues long before they escalate. Schools say it’s like finding the missing piece of the jigsaw. Suddenly the whole picture emerges.”
Supporting the Whole Child Through Connected Insight
This partnership supports CPOMS’ broader vision of Universal Safeguarding—an approach that connects systems, staff, and services to deliver a unified, prevention-first strategy across the education landscape. With STEER’s wellbeing data and CPOMS’ case management capabilities now working in unison, this integration strengthens UK schools’ ability to close the gap between concern and action, so no child is missed.
