An HR, payroll and pensions system for schools and academy trusts

EduPeople is an HR, payroll and pensions system designed specifically for the education sector with academy trusts and schools in mind. The EduPeople system is a live, cloud-based system which displays employee information in real-time, giving you a complete reflection of your organisation. EduPeople is not just software, it’s a system and a service. For example, when you sign up to EduPeople for Payroll & Pensions services, you receive a managed service delivered by a dedicated, named payroll officer who is on hand to support you.

EduPeople is a highly intuitive system that automates processes. All your HR and payroll data is in one place, removing the need for duplicate data entry. The employee’s single record automatically feeds data through to other modules, such as HR and Payroll & Pensions, minimising errors and risks making it easy to use. Contracts and letters can be generated at the click of a button and employee documentation is easily stored in their individual record. Reports are generated using real-time data and can be downloaded instantly, whilst dashboards and analytics easily show a true reflection of your workforce. Additionally, to ensure you get the most out of EduPeople, we provide extensive training for all users as part of your onboarding journey, giving users complete confidence.

Making the switch to EduPeople is easy. At Strictly Education, we work closely with our clients to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible by supporting you every step of the way. We take the time to understand your needs and requirements, construct a plan and support you at every stage of the implementation process. This support continues post implementation with ongoing training and support. Should you have any concerns about the transition, we can phase implementation, minimising potential risks of migration to EduPeople.

We provide extensive training during your transition, as well as monthly training sessions and regular drop-in sessions post implementation. You will also have access to our library of resources including guides and demonstration videos. Not only this, you will have constant support when you need it. EduPeople also gives you access to wider business services such as our HR Consultancy team, should you need further assistance, as well as being assigned a dedicated payroll officer who is on hand to support you.

EduPeople integrates with multiple other market-leading school systems including MIS, finance software and budgeting tools, for example Sage and Access. Seamless integration means you don’t have to duplicate data entry across multiple systems.

EduPeople is GDPR compliant and ensures your data is stored securely. EduPeople is supported by a data centre that is ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 accredited.

With the Pensions TPS & LGPS Administration Service we can take care of all of your pension administration, including uploading reports directly to Teachers’ Pensions and providing your local government pensions with required reporting each month, including end-of-year returns. Our dedicated Pensions team will answer any queries from the pension providers and complete monthly starters, leavers and changes reports.

Yes, EduPeople makes viewing data from multiple schools easily accessible under one platform. EduPeople also accommodates records for employees with multiple positions in multiple schools. From whole-MAT to a single establishment, you can control the level of data you make available.
