Pupil Protect vs Taremtec
Taremtec’s CBSecurepass signs visitors and staff in at a touchscreen and tracks DBS expiry. Visitors in Pupil Protect is built around safeguarding, and works from the same records as your DSL team.
The main differences are the safeguarding steps at the kiosk and what each one is connected to behind the scenes.

When Taremtec may suit you better
No system is right for every school. These are fair reasons to choose Taremtec.
- You want sign-in software and hardware from one supplier.
- You want late-arrival alerts sent to your safeguarding officer.
- You only want visitor management, without a safeguarding records system.
