See active passes during a drill or emergency
Authorised staff can review active passes, selected destinations and departure times as one input to the school's established response procedures. Vero is not a GPS or emergency-management system.
The lockdown blind spot
Paper or disconnected pass processes can make current out-of-class records harder to retrieve during a drill or emergency. Vero keeps active passes in one authorised live view.
Paper sign-out sheets
Paper sign-out sheets may remain in individual classrooms, making them harder for authorised leaders to review quickly during an established emergency response.
No system at all
Without a shared pass process, leaders may need to reconstruct who left class, the recorded destination and time from separate sources.
Shared records can reduce reconstruction
During an emergency response, a shared active-pass view can reduce the need to contact multiple teachers solely to reconstruct pass information.
A live view of active passes
Vero's dashboard shows each active pass in real time, including student name, selected destination, departure time and approving teacher. This is recorded pass information, not verified physical location.
- See active passes at a glance
- Selected destination for each active pass
- Accessible in a modern browser on school-approved devices
A consistent pass record for wider review
Each teacher-created pass records the student, approving staff member, selected destination and associated times. The record can support emergency debriefs and incident reviews, but it does not prove legal compliance by itself.
- Teacher-created passes record student, staff, selected destination and time
- Exportable records for incident reviews
- Public privacy notice and provider disclosures for school review
Visibility every day, not just in emergencies
The same active-pass view and recorded-destination history also support everyday follow-up by authorised staff.
