What's our policy on phones in lessons?

Your Behaviour Policy covers this in section 4. Here's a short summary for staff: phones stay switched off and out of sight during lessons, unless a teacher directs pupils to use them for learning.

AtomX Alerts · Whole-school alerts

One tap. Every screen, every classroom.

When seconds count, leadership can broadcast an alert from the AtomX Alerts site alert centre. AtomX Alerts is our separate alerting product, embedded in Atomas so it sits alongside the tools staff already use. It goes to every subscribed classroom and staff device at once, full screen, with its own colour and sound, so nobody misses it and nobody has to guess what it means.

  • Partial lockdownMove indoors, lock perimeter doors
  • Shelter in placeDark blue, with a soft chime

  • Animal looseStay indoors and keep clear
  • Custom alertYour own wording, no siren
AtomX Alerts · Site alert centre
The AtomX Alerts site alert centre: a full lockdown button, partial lockdown, shelter in place, medical and animal loose alerts, a custom alert box, delivery telemetry showing 100% received, and a live activity log.
Site alert centre used by school leadership to broadcast whole-school alerts.

Every connected screen

Classroom displays and staff devices that subscribe to your site all receive the alert.

Delivery receipts

Live telemetry shows how many screens are connected and how many have received each alert.

Activity log

Every alert and all-clear is recorded with who sent it, when, and how many screens received it.

Connection tests

Send a test at any time to check every screen is subscribed and online before you need it.

Even louder on our phone platform

Every alert, paged to every handset.

Schools on our own hosted Yeastar phone system get AtomX Alerts delivered as paging broadcasts too, so the same lockdown is heard through every desk phone as well as seen on every screen.

Our phone platform

AI isn't an add-on. It's infrastructure.

One school IT package. AI included.

We've built Atomas directly into our core school IT support packages, alongside network, device and cyber security management. One unified, cost-effective platform your school can depend on, supported by the same team.
