MyConcern has made it so much easier to record, it's more accessible, it gives me better insight into what is happening and that bigger picture."
Sue Bailey, Safeguarding Lead The Arthur Terry Learning Partnership
Hear from Safeguarding Lead, Sue Bailey, on how the Arthur Terry Learning Partnership have benefitted from using Tes MyConcern and Clarity.
Arthur Terry Learning Partnership (ATLP) is a multi-academy trust responsible for:
students
all through school
staff members
primary schools
secondary schools
local authorities
We feel far more confident about how we record and then act on child protection information.
ATLP adopted Tes MyConcern to streamline safeguarding processes and later invested in our reporting tool, Clarity, to compare safeguarding concerns between schools effectively. This allowed them to pinpoint specific issues, allocate resources and maintain a clear overview of safeguarding trends across the trust.
Software solutions for concern reporting
Before MyConcern, ATLP schools used paper-based systems. Files were often disorganised and crucial information wasn’t always in one place, making it difficult to compile a complete picture of each pupil's history and complicating the transfer of files from primary to secondary.
With MyConcern, Safeguarding Lead, Sue Bailey, has found it much easier to record concerns, access vital information and see the bigger picture. The key learning point is staying ahead of the game by identifying which staff members aren’t reporting concerns and understanding where additional training is required.
