Trust central teams, school leaders and governance
Risk and Action Management
Risks are described inconsistently and actions live in meeting minutes rather than in a system anyone checks.
How the platform approaches it
- 1Use one risk structure across every school.
- 2Link mitigations to actual actions and evidence.
- 3Escalate by rating, not by whoever shouts loudest.
- 4Report the position honestly, including what is overdue.
Capabilities used
- Consistent risk register
- Likelihood and impact rating
- Linked actions and evidence
- Escalation rules
- Overdue action reporting
- Full audit history
Intended outcomes
Design goals for the platform, not measured results from real schools.
- Comparable risk information across schools
- Actions with owners and dates, not intentions
- Fewer surprises at board level
Risk ratings are the judgement of the people who record them. The platform structures that judgement; it does not replace it.
