CPOMS, the UK’s leading safeguarding and wellbeing software provider, has partnered with Kids Planet, one of the largest nursery groups, to standardise safeguarding and wellbeing processes across more than 290 nurseries nationwide.
As Kids Planet has grown to more than 290 nurseries, consistent safeguarding across every setting has become critical. The organisation turned to CPOMS so that concerns are recorded clearly, shared appropriately, and reviewed with confidence — at every site, every time.
Kids Planet will use CPOMS StudentSafe™ to give nursery managers and practitioners a consistent way to log and track safeguarding concerns. CPOMS Insight™, which integrates with StudentSafe, gives leaders clear visibility into safeguarding patterns across all settings. CPOMS StaffSafe™ will manage staff welfare records, giving leaders a complete picture of child and staff welfare.
“Kids Planet is widely recognised for the quality and consistency of its early years provision, and we’re delighted to welcome them as a CPOMS partner,” said Rick Gardner, Managing Director at CPOMS. “Their approach demonstrates leadership in safeguarding across the private day care sector, and we’re proud to be working with an organisation that shares our commitment to protecting children and supporting staff with the right systems in place.”
Lucy Kaczmarska, Chief Operating Officer at Kids Planet, said the rollout of CPOMS StudentSafe and StaffSafe “builds on our strong safeguarding foundations, giving our teams access to robust, industry‑leading tools that empower them to act with total confidence.” With this investment we are keeping our focus exactly where it should be: on the safety and happiness of the children in our care.”
For early years organisations managing safeguarding across multiple sites, this partnership demonstrates what a consistent, system-wide approach looks like in practice.
