Personal Education Plan and Attendance Management System

The Isle of Wight Virtual School is seeking a digital solution to streamline Personal Education Plan (PEP) management for children in care and monitor school attendance for all children with an assigned social worker. The solution must be secure, user-friendly, and compliant with Department for Education statutory and non-statutory requirements. Key requirements include: creating, updating, and securely storing PEPs; enabling real-time attendance monitoring for children in care and those with social workers; generating reports to demonstrate compliance with DfE duties; and improving communication and data sharing between schools, social care staff, and Virtual School teams. The system should enhance data accuracy, reduce administrative burden, and support effective collaboration across multiple agencies to improve outcomes for vulnerable children.
