About us
Built in a real setting, not a boardroom
PupilDB is built and supported in the UK by Dev Team Solutions Limited, a UK software company.
Why we built PupilDB
PupilDB started as the system behind a multi-centre education provider that works with pupils referred by schools and local authorities. They needed to know every pupil well: their medical needs, their placement, who collects them and how often they attend. And they needed to prove it to the people who commission their places.
Spreadsheets couldn’t keep up, and big school information systems were built for a different kind of school. So we built the system with them, and it runs their day: pupil records, timetables across several centres, registers, reports and staff checks.
Now we’re opening PupilDB up to other alternative provision providers, tuition centres, pupil referral units and small schools that work the same way.
What we believe
-
Plain English
Software for school staff should be obvious. If it needs a manual, we haven’t finished it.
-
Honest about what’s built
We only market what PupilDB does today. Everything else is on the public roadmap.
-
Fair pricing
A flat monthly fee in broad bands. Never per pupil, never per module.
-
Feedback-led
What customers tell us drives what we change, and continuous improvement is part of your monthly fee.
