Involve: The operating platform for modern schools
A new species of software that restores productivity and joy for the whole school community. Involve pulls the software a school runs on into a single platform, covering attendance, timetabling, co-curricular activities, parent communication, boarding, catering and analytics rather than stitching together separate modules. It connects to the systems a school already uses - including MIS platforms such as iSAMS, Arbor and Bromcom via direct integration or Wonde - so that student, staff, class and timetable data syncs across without being re-keyed. It also links to SOCS for sports fixtures and to WCBS PASS for billing.

Day to day, this means co-curricular attendance can write back to the main register, so a record taken at a music lesson reaches the MIS without a second entry. Live dashboards sit on the school's own data and can be filtered by year or house, and the platform supports separate access for staff types including peripatetic and restricted teachers.

Pricing starts with a co-curricular tier and builds up through parent portal and whole-school portal options, with custom pricing for networks and multi-academy trusts. Involve grew out of a music supervision app built by founders Ross Garrod and James King, and the platform hosts UK-based data and states GDPR compliance.
