SEND & Safeguarding, built around the 2026 White Paper
Built around the 2026 SEND White Paper and KCSiE — turning complex compliance obligations into actionable dashboards. From the 20-week EHCP statutory deadline to online safety filtering — nothing falls through the cracks.
SEND provision is one of the highest-pressure jobs in a school. Lumio is designed to give SENCOs the structure and dashboards to manage it without losing evenings to spreadsheets.
Every Pupil. Every Detail. Every Role Can See What They Need.
Lumio's Students page is the single source of truth for every child in your school. From the pupil passport a supply teacher needs in 30 seconds, to the safeguarding chronology only the DSL can access — the right information reaches the right person, with the right permissions.
No more emailing the SENCO for a pupil's strategies before a lesson. No more searching three systems for emergency contacts.
Wraparound Childcare Management — From Breakfast Register to HAF Holiday Club
Free breakfast clubs are now statutory for every primary school from April 2026 (Children's Wellbeing & Schools Bill). Lumio makes you ready — with DfE grant tracking, live registers, staff:child ratio compliance, payment management and HAF programme tools all in one place.
The national rollout of free breakfast clubs begins April 2026. Every primary school needs to be ready. Lumio makes it simple.
Give your office team their day back.
School office teams spend hours every day on follow-ups, chasing, letters and data entry. Lumio is designed to automate the routine admin so your team can focus on the people in front of them.
Multi-Academy Trust? See Every School in One View.
Trust leads and CEOs get a cross-school dashboard showing attendance, attainment, SEND, safeguarding and budget — for every academy in the trust, side by side. Spot the school that needs support before it becomes a crisis.
Talk to us about trustsEarly Access Programme
We're looking for schools to help us get this right.
Lumio for Schools is new. We know it. And we'd rather be honest about that than pretend we have 500 schools already using it.
We're looking for a small number of schools — primary, secondary, or MAT — who are fed up with overpriced, over-promised edtech and want to try something different.
Sign up and get 6 months completely free. No commitment. No contract. No sales team breathing down your neck. At the end, all we ask is an honest case study and the chance to keep working with you — so we can build exactly what your school actually needs.
If something doesn't work — we'll fix it. If you want a feature — tell us and we'll build it. That week. Not on the roadmap. That week.

Ofsted 2025
Ofsted Ready. Every Time.
Not Just Inspection Time.
The 2025 Education Inspection Framework changed everything. No more single overall grade. Six evaluation areas. A new 5-point scale. An Inclusion area scored separately for the first time. Schools that are data-ready will thrive. Schools that aren't will struggle. Lumio makes sure you're always ready.
The New Ofsted 2025 Framework
Quality of Education
Curriculum intent, implementation and impact. Is your curriculum ambitious? Does it actually work?
Behaviour & Attitudes
Conduct, attendance, attitudes to learning. Your attendance data, behaviour log and exclusions — all in one place.
Personal Development
Character education, enrichment, wider opportunities. Evidence your PSHE, trips, clubs and extra-curricular offer.
Leadership & Management
Vision, strategy, governance, staff wellbeing. Your SIP, SEF, governor minutes and budget — auto-populated.
Inclusion (NEW)
SEND provision, disadvantaged pupils, EAL, vulnerable groups. The new standalone area. The one schools are least prepared for.
Safeguarding
Culture, records, training, DSL compliance. One failing here stops everything else. Lumio makes it watertight.

The Inspection Window Is 48 Hours
Ofsted gives schools just one working day's notice. That is not enough time to gather evidence, brief staff, pull attendance data, compile safeguarding records and prepare your SEF. Lumio is designed to keep the evidence inspectors typically ask for live and current, so the call doesn't trigger a scramble.
