In independent schools across the UK, heads and bursars drive excellence, support wellbeing, control costs, and keep business operations on track. Yet manual tasks, scattered systems, and rising expectations from families and governors stretch teachers and admin staff.
purpl.School brings you the next generation of support: an integrated, agentic AI platform that connects directly with your school’s core systems to streamline every aspect of school life.
Real-World Challenge
At Oakwood House School, admissions staff juggle parent queries and tours, teachers search for up-to-date pupil data, and leadership teams need quick answers for policy and planning. Data lives in emails, spreadsheets, and multiple MIS platforms. The result? Hours lost in duplication, slow communication, and missed opportunities to focus on students.
The purpl.School Advantage
purpl.School solves these exact challenges. It provides a suite of focused AI Agents that work seamlessly with leading platforms your school already relies on, including iSAMS, SOCS, Google Classroom, and more.
- Plug-and-Play Integration: Agents connect instantly with your MIS, VLE, attendance, safeguarding, and finance systems, enabling real-time data flows and reducing manual re-entry.
- Customisable Content and Training: We train each school’s agents on local policies, communications, and preferred workflows, reflecting your unique culture.
- Comprehensive Analytics: Heads and bursars get dashboards pulled from every connected system, delivering instant insights into admissions, attainment, attendance, and wellbeing.
Core Agent Areas
- Student Learning: Personalised AI companions guide students, providing targeted interventions and linking straight back to academic records.
- Teacher Productivity: Smart agents automate lesson resource creation, marking summaries, behaviour logs, and parent updates — all actionable within your MIS and classroom systems.
- Admin & Compliance: The system automates registers, trip lists, event reminders, and incident logs, with instant syncing across all platforms you use in school.
- Pastoral Support: The system monitors engagement and surfaces early alerts, integrating with wellbeing and safeguarding workflows.

Practical Use Cases
Admissions Automation
The AI Admissions Agent fields parent enquiries, issues instant prospectus packs, and books tours, tracking and syncing everything with your admissions pipeline in iSAMS or SOCS. Weekly summary reports go straight to leadership, supporting strategic planning and forecast accuracy.
Teacher Efficiency
A teacher preparing lessons accesses the agent for instant performance insights, tailored resources, and homework tracking, all based on MIS-linked data. The system auto-syncs discussion notes and pupil achievements into record systems, drastically cutting admin time.
Parent and Admin Engagement
Parents ask about trip payments and leave forms; the agent responds instantly via preferred channels, updating attendance and trip lists across school systems, and sending reminders — all with no delays or manual chasing.
Communication and Integration — The purpl.School Difference
With omni-channel support, agents deliver secure, consistent interaction with families, teachers and exec teams, unifying messages and data across telephony, social, and classroom platforms. Integration means no more “lost information”; everything works together, from admissions to alumni.
