Designed for Virtual School Leadership

We were the first provider in the market to create a dedicated, secure, cloud-based suite of systems for attendance and attainment monitoring.
Those systems now power our 360 Virtual School Solution – continuously refined to meet statutory guidance, evolving legislation and the day-to-day realities of supporting vulnerable children.

The platform empowers Virtual School Heads to champion the attainment and progress of children in care while also meeting the expanded DfE remit to support children with social workers, including those in kinship care.

Through 360, Virtual Schools can:

  • Track the educational journey of every child, regardless of plan type (CLA, CiN, CP, YJ, SEN).
  • Maximise the impact of Pupil Premium Plus funding through data-led decision making.
  • Access tailored resources and insights to meet the unique needs of their cohorts.
  • Evidence educational improvement and compliance with national standards.

Collaborative by Nature

360 strengthens partnerships between schools, social care teams, Virtual School Heads and multi-agency professionals, bringing everyone around the same child-centred view.

By uniting education and care data, the system helps teams coordinate support, reduce duplication and ensure that every intervention is informed by accurate, shared information.

It’s an MIS designed not just to manage data, but to connect people and purpose.

Regional and National Insight

With one of the largest customer networks in the sector, Welfare Call is uniquely positioned to offer regional and national benchmarking analysis.

This feature helps Virtual Schools compare performance, share best practice and collaborate to improve outcomes across local and national levels.
