Cosafe helps schools and Multi-Academy Trusts (MATs) across the UK implement their emergency action plans, delivering alarms and messages to any device, providing information to staff, coordinating responses and ensuring Martyn’s Law Compliance.
“As a group of schools, we had no effective way to alert all staff to a lockdown quickly without potentially putting someone at risk. Cosafe has solved that problem by enabling any member of staff to instantly alert colleagues from wherever they are, while also giving senior leaders the tools to coordinate incidents and communicate effectively.
The Cosafe team have been fantastic throughout, and we would highly recommend the platform to any organisation looking to strengthen its lockdown and emergency communications.”
From September 2026, schools in England need stronger allergy safety measures. Cosafe helps staff alert the right people and coordinate a medical emergency response when every second counts.
Set a clear policy to prevent and respond to allergic reactions.
Train all staff to recognise anaphylaxis and respond in an emergency.
Keep spare adrenaline auto-injectors on site for life-threatening emergencies.
Maintain individual healthcare plans for pupils with diagnosed allergies.
Martyn’s Law mandates actionable plans for four critical responses. Replace your paper policies with a one-touch school incident alert system that staff can actually use when seconds count.
Safely and swiftly move staff and students away from school threats.
Direct your school to move internally to secure, pre-defined safe zones.
Secure your entire school site immediately to protect against risks.
Broadcast real-time crisis updates to the right people, exactly when it matters.
School incidents are never one-size-fits-all. UK schools face a wide spectrum of threats, including severe weather, medical emergencies, intruders and even violent or intimidating pupil behaviour. Because emergencies present themselves in so many unpredictable ways, relying on disjointed or outdated alerting or communication methods is no longer a viable safety strategy. A more structured and efficient approach is required.
When a emergency strikes, many schools still reach for walkie-talkies, desk phones, tannoy systems or staff WhatsApp groups. But these everyday tools often fall short of an incident alert when seconds count.
See how the Cosafe incident management platform helps schools meet safety guidance and regulations and keeps students and staff safe.
Some schools begin with a single panic button. Others roll out checklists, documents and messaging from day one. Cosafe scales to whichever you need right now.
For teams that need to raise the alarm fast, communicate securely and access critical safeguarding procedures in the first minutes of an incident.
Customised alarms, for specific emergencies or everyday school incidents.
Direct alarms to specific groups (e.g. SLT, All Staff or Estates).
Reliable and secure school messaging between staff and SLT.
Access to critical procedures and school safety documents, available even when offline.
Silently and instantly broadcasts a high-priority alert to a designated person or team.
Proactive safety functionality designed for employees who are working alone.
For larger organisations that need more control, larger-scale communication and real-time operational oversight during major incidents.

Effective school safety requires more than a fast alert. Cosafe combines emergency communication, staff safety, incident management, checklists and critical documents into one connected platform—helping schools prepare, respond and recover with confidence.
When a critical incident occurs on or near your campus, you need to notify thousands of people instantly. CoAlert is a one-way push communication feature designed to rapidly deliver emergency alarms and important messages to mobile devices using the standard Cosafe App.
Using simplified join codes, CoAlert ensures everyone from students to external contract staff receive the right critical information at the right time, without the added complexity of outdated, unreliable and expensive SMS solutions.
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act, schools have a strict duty of care to manage the risks associated with staff working alone, whether they are on campus out-of-hours or conducting offsite visits. Cosafe’s integrated lone worker feature provides robust safeguarding for both teaching and operational staff directly through their existing mobile devices.
Eliminating the need for expensive, single-use physical panic alarms. By combining real-time GPS tracking, scheduled check-ins, and instant emergency escalation into the right team, Cosafe ensures that isolated staff are never truly alone.
Elevate UK school safety and meet strict safeguarding requirements with Cosafe Panic Button. Offering continuous staff protection anywhere—from isolated classrooms to offsite trips and outings or wraparound provision.
In a crisis, a staff member can trigger a discreet safety alarm that bypasses the receiving device’s silent mode, instantly transmitting their precise GPS location to your school’s SLT or designated crisis management team. This allows for a rapid, coordinated response without escalating a volatile situation with audible sirens.
