One platform across your entire trust
Senso gives trust CEOs, CFOs and senior leaders consolidated safeguarding, filtering and IT visibility across every school in the trust from a single deployment. Trust-level policy, school-level boundaries, governance-ready reporting, without separate systems at each school.
What Senso gives trust leaders
Oversight without micromanagement
Consolidated safeguarding visibility
Trust safeguarding leads can see across all schools, with school DSLs seeing only their own school. Access boundaries enforced at the data level, not by convention.
Central policy with school exceptions
Set safeguarding keyphrase policy and filtering rules at trust level. Schools can apply permitted local exceptions without overriding central policy.
Cross-school IT reporting
Trust IT teams see asset inventory, device health and IT operations across all schools, not separate dashboards per school.
One platform, one contract
All schools in the trust use one Senso platform. One contract, one support relationship, one management console for every school.
Role delegation per school
Grant school-level IT, safeguarding and classroom management roles without sharing trust-wide credentials. Each school operates within its own boundary.
Trust-wide Assisted Monitoring
Assisted Monitoring Services operates across all schools. Escalations are routed to the appropriate school DSL based on device origin.
Access model
Who sees what, across your trust
Every role sees exactly the data they need. Access is enforced at the data layer, not by relying on users staying within their view.

Central policy
Set once. Apply everywhere.
Trust-level policy is the baseline. Schools operate within it. Exceptions are delegated deliberately, not inherited by accident.
Safeguarding policy
Keyphrase lists managed at trust level. School DSLs can add approved local terms within the trust framework; they cannot remove trust-level terms.
Safeguarding depth →Filtering policy
Category blocks applied trust-wide. School IT administrators can add approved exceptions. Safe Search enforcement and age-appropriate controls set centrally.
Filtering policy →Classroom permissions
Teacher access managed by school or trust role. IT administrators control which classroom management features teachers can access, by school or by trust.
Reporting schedule
Consolidated governance reports available to trust leadership on a regular schedule. No need to ask individual schools to compile their own spreadsheets.
Governance reporting
Trust-wide reporting for governance and inspection
Senso gives trust leaders the consolidated evidence needed for governor reporting, Ofsted preparation and trust board meetings, without asking each school to compile their own data.
- Safeguarding event volume by school
- Alert response times
- Filtering policy effectiveness
- Device estate summary
- IT Operations activity
- Cross-school comparison
Commercial model
One agreement, all schools
As the trust grows, new schools join the existing Senso deployment. Policy is inherited, data is structured correctly from day one, and IT does not start a new procurement project for each acquisition.
One contract
All schools, all products, one renewal date. No per-school negotiation, no mismatched contracts across different schools.
One support relationship
A single point of contact for all schools in the trust. Issues are triaged centrally; you do not manage a separate support relationship per school.
Scale without complexity
New schools are added to the existing deployment. Central policy applies immediately. No new procurement cycle when the trust acquires a school.
The consolidation case
One platform across the trust, not one per school
Trusts that grow by acquiring schools often inherit a different technology stack at each school, with separate safeguarding tools, separate filtering contracts, separate classroom management deployments. Each school renews separately, is supported separately and reports separately.
Senso replaces school-by-school technology with a trust-wide deployment. One Senso platform, with platform-specific deployment components managed through one console, covers every school in the trust from day one, simplifying both technology management and cost.
