The Keep Safe app is what makes structured case data possible. It guides the reporter through the right questions — so the data lands in your case file already organised, not as a wall of free text.
Keep Safe covers all key safeguarding categories, with room for anything that doesn’t fit a standard label.
When a regulator, parent, or governor asks “what happened, and what did you do about it?”, a screenshot of an email thread is no longer enough. Inspectors look for evidence that a concern was seen, recorded, owned, actioned, and closed — with a clear chain of custody between every step.
Keep Safe turns that expectation into a default. Every concern raised through the app becomes a case file the moment it lands. The Designated Safeguarding Lead sees urgency before they see content. Notes are time-stamped against the staff member who wrote them. Assignments and re-assignments are recorded with the reason. Files attached during a case are linked to that case forever, not buried in a personal Drive folder.
For multi-academy trusts and local authorities, this consistency is what allows central safeguarding teams to spot trends — repeating senders across schools, urgency clusters in particular cohorts, response-time drift between sites — without asking each setting to compile a report by hand.
