How do you currently manage check-ins at your school?
THE TRADITIONAL WAY
Many primary schools still rely on visitor books, spreadsheets or disconnected systems to record who is on site. These traditional processes make it harder to maintain accurate records, protect pupil information and respond confidently in an emergency when it matters most.
Manual sign-in queues
Unverified visitors
No DBS checks
Limited reporting
Unreliable fire lists
Illegible records
Custr Check-In is a visitor management system for primary schools that brings pupil, staff, visitor and contractor check-ins together in one secure place. It replaces paper registers and legacy processes, giving office staff greater visibility, stronger data protection and accurate lists of everyone on site

-

Document signing
Present your safeguarding policy at check-in, capture a digital signature and keep a secure record for every visitor and contractor on site.

Visitor badge printing
Print a badge at check-in so staff can instantly identify who is on site and why, at a glance, from across the room to help with pupil safeguarding.
-

Visitor screening
Pre-screen visitors and contractors against a watchlist or restricted list before they arrive, so anyone who shouldn't be granted access is flagged during check-in.
-

Evacuation lists
Give authorised staff instant access to a live, up-to-date evacuation list during a drill or emergency, so everyone on site can be accounted for quickly and accurately
-

Health & safety popup
Display a health & safety popup on the device screen before visitors and contractors check-in which must be digitally agreed before the check-in process begins.

Reporting
Under Martyn's Law, schools with 200 or more people on site must have clear evacuation, lockdown and communication procedures in place, and be able to show they work. Custr gives authorised staff a live on-site list to manage evacuations, separate lockdown procedures to keep people secure, and instant notifications to keep everyone informed, all backed by reports ready for audit.

FAQ for primary schools.
-
Custr gives designated staff a live, photo matched list of every parent, visitor and staff member on site during a fire drill or real evacuation. Names can be marked safe as everyone is accounted for, which matters most in a primary school where young children cannot be relied on to account for themselves.
-
Yes. Custr captures a photo of every visitor at check in, which appears on their printed badge alongside their name and reason for visit. This gives any member of staff a quick way to visually confirm who someone is, which matters in a primary school where unfamiliar adults around young children need to be easy to spot and check.
-
Yes. Custr stores pupil, staff and parent data securely with access properly controlled, so only authorised staff can view sensitive information. This gives parents confidence that their child's details are protected to the same standard your school applies to safeguarding more broadly.
-
As a visitor management system for primary schools, Custr gives you a clear, auditable record of everyone who has been on site, along with safeguarding sign offs and fire evacuation history. This means you can show inspectors a compliant system rather than a paper logbook, which is often the first thing checked in a primary school safeguarding review.
-
Custr gives you a live, accurate record of everyone on site, which is central to meeting Martyn's Law requirements. While most primary schools fall below the 200 capacity threshold that triggers the standard tier, having a compliant check in system in place now means your school is prepared as guidance evolves ahead of April 2027.
-
Yes. Custr integrates securely with the leading Management Information Systems used in UK primary schools, giving your team read and write access to keep pupil, staff and visitor data accurate. This removes the double entry that often falls to a small primary office team already stretched across multiple jobs.
-
Yes. Late arrivals can be logged at check in and synced automatically with your MIS, removing the need for a separate late book. This keeps registers accurate for every pupil, which matters for attendance monitoring in a primary school where consistent daily records are closely tracked.
-
Yes. Staff can sign out a whole class or group for a trip in seconds, keeping an accurate record of who left the site and when they are expected back. This gives your office a clear, up to date picture of every pupil's whereabouts, even on a busy primary school trip day with several classes off site at once.
-
Yes. Custr prints professional visitor badges instantly at check in, showing name, photo and reason for visit. This helps any member of staff identify who someone is on site in seconds, which is especially useful in a primary school where staff may not recognise every parent or contractor by sight.
-
Yes. As soon as a visitor checks in, Custr can automatically notify the member of staff they are visiting by email or in app alert. Teachers do not need to leave a classroom of young pupils unattended just to check reception, and visitors are not left waiting at the school gate.
-
Yes. Custr lets you pre register parents and other guests ahead of school events such as parents' evening, open mornings or nativity performances. This speeds up check in on the day and helps keep busy primary school events organised when large numbers of parents arrive at once.
-
Yes. Visitors can view and sign safeguarding policies, site rules or other required documents as part of check in, with a digital record kept for your files. This ensures every adult entering a primary school has acknowledged your safeguarding expectations before they step past reception.
-
As a visitor management system for primary schools, Custr Check-In is licensed annually, with pricing tailored per school, per year, excluding VAT. Our tiered pricing is based on school size and usage, ensuring a fair and scalable solution whether you are a small village primary or a larger multi form entry school.
-
Custr works on devices your school already owns, such as an iPad or reception PC, so there is no expensive kiosk to buy. For primary schools with multiple entrances, such as a separate early years door, our NFC powered check in offers a low cost alternative to hardware at every door.
-
Most primary schools are up and running within a few days, with support provided throughout. There is no lengthy installation process, so your office team can start using Custr with minimal disruption to the school day.
-
Custr does not currently integrate directly with your Single Central Record, though we are in discussions with a provider to add this integration in future.
