Three to seven primary schools. The CEO is also the Responsible Person. Compliance lives in their head and a shared OneDrive folder. Proprietas replaces both with something the next CEO inherits cleanly.
Compliance for Multi-Academy Trusts.
A typical trust runs eight to thirty buildings, two hundred statutory obligations, and a single Responsible Person whose name sits on every fire risk assessment. Proprietas keeps every certificate, every expiry, every contractor competence in one place — so the bursar, estates manager and headteacher can see the same picture at the same time.
Every Regime You Carry, in One Place.
The statutory burden specific to this sector — tracked, scheduled, audit-trailed. Drop a certificate, watch the expiry clock, hand a single PDF to the inspector.
Fire Risk Assessment (FSO 2005)
Annual reassessment plus post-incident triggers. Responsible Person named per site, action plan tracked through to sign-off — the evidence Ofsted's safeguarding inspector and your insurer both want to see.
L8 Legionella (ACOP L8 / HSG274)
Monthly water temperature monitoring, six-monthly review, two-yearly risk reassessment. Showers in PE blocks are higher-risk than the staff kitchen — the schedule reflects that, not a generic boilerplate.
Fixed-Wiring EICR (BS 7671)
Five-yearly periodic inspection across every school. NICEIC verification on the contractor before the certificate is accepted. Remedials tracked through to satisfactory sign-off.
Gas Safety (CP12, GSIUR 1998)
Annual CP12 inspection on every boiler, hob and water heater. Gas Safe number checked against the live register at upload time — engineers off the register can't file certs through the portal.
Asbestos (CAR 2012)
Survey register with presumed-vs-confirmed flags. Re-inspection schedule per site. Designated Person nominated under your trust's asbestos management plan — visible on every page that touches asbestos materials.
PAT, LOLER & Lift Servicing
Portable appliances annual, LOLER on lifts and hoists six-monthly. Engineer's report attached to every obligation; PAT register exports for the school office's safety walk-rounds.
Fire Alarm & Emergency Lighting (BS 5839 / BS 5266)
Weekly call-point tests, monthly function tests, annual engineer service. Test logs auto-populate from the contractor's upload so the school's own register is always current.
Single Central Record for Contractors
Every contractor on site needs the right DBS, the right insurance, the right scheme membership. Light user logins give contractors a portal of their own — competence evidence belongs to them, expiry alerts belong to you.
Where Proprietas Fits.
A few common shapes we see in this sector. The platform flexes for each — same product, same price, different scoping.
Ten to twenty schools, regional estates manager, multiple sites per cluster. Pre-expiry workflow routes work orders to the right local contractor before the cert lapses.
Twenty-plus schools, sometimes split estates and finance functions. Audit pack exports per school plus the trust-wide compliance picture for board reporting and ESFA returns.
Shared services across legally separate trusts. Multi-tenant isolation enforced at the database level — your data, their data, never mixed.
