CEFM provides a range of policies for schools, including statutory guidance and statutory policies for schools and academies, plus tools and resources to help you manage your school or academy more effectively.
Comprehensive Policies for Schools and Academy Trusts
Schools and academies must maintain various policies to comply with statutory requirements and ensure smooth operations. CEFM provides over 170 downloadable school policies covering areas like data protection, safeguarding, and staff management.
Some essential policies include:
- Safeguarding Policies for student safety.

These policies are essential for all types of institutions, including primary, secondary, maintained special schools, free schools, and pupil referral units (PRUs). Schools should review their policies regularly to ensure they stay compliant with current regulations and requirements.
CEFM helps schools easily manage and publish their policies online to meet these standards.
