For compliance & risk managers

Activities that arrive on your desk already reviewed. Already complete.

The bottleneck in most schools isn't the compliance manager: it is the quality of what arrives at the compliance stage. Whether your school uses a form tool, a workflow system, or nothing at all, most of them record that governance happened. Orca is different: built-in AI actively reviews every activity for compliance before it reaches you. You confirm, not chase.

What changes

From the bottleneck
to the final confirmation.

When activities arrive incomplete, compliance managers become researchers, tracking down missing information, chasing risk assessments, and verifying what should have been verified already. Orca moves that work to where it belongs: upstream.

Without Orca

Compliance as a catch-up exercise

Activities arrive with gaps, including missing information and incomplete risk assessments
Compliance manager spends time finding what's missing, not reviewing what's there
Risk assessments created ad hoc, inconsistent and hard to audit
Audit trail only exists if someone thought to create it
Approval is as good as the individual's memory and diligence
With Orca

Compliance as a confirmation

Every activity reviewed against your policies before it reaches you
Missing controls flagged and resolved upstream, not your problem to find
Risk assessments generated from your templates, consistently, every time
Complete audit trail, every action timestamped and attributed
Compliance is structural, not reliant on any one person remembering
What the compliance review checks

Six AI checks on every activity.
Before an approver sees it.

Orca's compliance review isn't a checklist a planner fills in. It's an active, cross-referenced assessment specific to your school's policies, history, and risk context.

Check 01

School policies

Activity details checked against your school's configured policies, including excursion requirements, overnight rules, activity-type obligations, automatically.

Check 02

Staff ratios

Proposed staffing verified against your school's ratio requirements for the activity type, cohort size, and any specific risk factors present.

Check 03

Risk assessment completeness

Orca checks that required rows are present, residual risk ratings are within acceptable thresholds, and no high-risk elements are left unmitigated.

Check 04

Historical incidents

Cross-referenced against your school's incident history. If a similar activity, venue, or cohort has past issues, that context is surfaced before approval.

Check 05

Venue information

Known information about the venue, from past activities and public data, is checked against the activity's risk profile. Relevant factors flagged.

Check 06

Missing controls

Risk rows where controls are absent or insufficient given the initial risk rating are detected and flagged before the activity proceeds to sign-off.

How the review works

From submission to sign-off,
every gap caught before it reaches you.

The compliance review runs automatically as part of every activity's workflow, built in, not added on. The role of the compliance manager shifts from chasing what's missing to confirming what's complete. Less time on process. More confidence in the outcome.

1

Activity planned and submitted

A teacher describes the activity. Orca structures it, draws on your school's data, and generates a draft risk assessment from your templates. The planner reviews and submits.

2

Compliance review runs automatically

Before the activity reaches any approver, Orca checks it against your policies, staff ratios, incident history, and venue data. Gaps flagged to the planner first, resolved before it moves forward.

3

You review what's already been checked

By the time the activity reaches you, it's complete. Your role shifts from finding gaps to confirming they've been addressed, with a full audit trail behind every decision.
