Everything your school needs, in one platform

Loudwater replaces SIMS, Arbor, Bromcom and ScholarPack with a single AI-native school management information system. Over 40 modules covering teaching & learning, safeguarding, statutory returns, finance, and contact communication.

Platform

One system. Every moment of the school day.

From the first register to the last contact email, Loudwater replaces the patchwork of tools schools juggle with one elegant, AI-native platform.

Smart Attendance

AM/PM registers with one-tap marking, automated lateness alerts, and authoritative statutory codes built in.

Payroll Management

Run compliant payroll with automated calculations, payslips, HMRC submissions, and clear approval workflows for every pay run.

Assessment Builder

Rubrics, flight paths, and auto-marked quizzes with gap analysis that pinpoints exactly where to intervene.

Contact Portal

Two-way messaging, consents, permission slips, and instant notifications - in the contact's preferred language.

Timetable & Cover

Clash-free timetables with drag-and-drop, instant cover allocation, and exam hall planning.

Safeguarding & SEND

Secure CPOMS-style logging, SEND plans, EHCP tracking, and tiered access controls for DSLs and SENCOs.

The Platform

Beautifully crafted. Ruthlessly practical.

Every screen is designed with staff, for staff. Fast keyboard flows, zero training required, and a single source of truth across every role in your school.

Seating Planner

Visual rooms, reimagined.

Drag-and-drop seating plans with pupil names, SEND/EAL/behaviour flags, and automatic conflict alerts. Rotate, clone for exams, and share with cover staff in a click.
