Connected Attendance and Safeguarding Data Helps Schools Identify Concerns Earlier and Intervene with Confidence
CPOMS, the UK’s leading provider of safeguarding, wellbeing and pastoral software, is pleased to announce a new integration with A Star Attendance Solutions. This partnership syncs attendance data directly into CPOMS StudentSafe, enabling schools to view attendance and safeguarding information together in one unified system.
Empowering Schools with Connected Safeguarding and Attendance
Safeguarding and attendance both offer vital early indicators of pupil wellbeing, yet they are too often managed separately. With this new integration, attendance data from the A Star System now flows seamlessly into StudentSafe, giving schools a clearer, more holistic picture of each pupil’s circumstances, without the need for duplicate data entry or switching between systems.
“This partnership marks a significant step forward in delivering an integrated, universal safeguarding approach,” said Rick Gardner, Managing Director of CPOMS. “Attendance patterns are often among the first signs that a pupil may be facing challenges, and now that data is automatically available within StudentSafe. Safeguarding and pastoral teams gain earlier visibility and deeper context to support timely interventions and help ensure pupils receive the support they need.”
How Educational Settings Benefit
The A Star Attendance System gives schools real-time visibility into pupil patterns, helping staff identify concerns early. With attendance data now syncing directly into CPOMS, schools gain a unified view of safeguarding and attendance in one place. This integration saves time, eliminates duplicate data entry, and delivers actionable insights to support earlier intervention and better outcomes for every pupil.
“We’re thrilled to partner with CPOMS to remove barriers between attendance and safeguarding,” said Jill Robson, Director at A Star Attendance. “School staff no longer have to juggle multiple tools — they can now see all the signals in one place, making it easier to spot risks early and ensure no child slips through the cracks.”
A New Benchmark in Pupil Insight
This integration further strengthens CPOMS’ vision of Universal Safeguarding, where every strand of a pupil’s wellbeing is visible, interconnected, and actionable. By uniting safeguarding and attendance data together, schools using both CPOMS and A Star Attendance can intervene more quickly and with greater insight, delivering targeted support and improving outcomes for every pupil.
