Dextro is your outsourced Education Compliance Operations Desk. We handle the administrative heavy lifting of getting teachers cleared for schools: from mobile document intake and headteacher reference chasing to live DfE TRA sweeps, 5-year gap auditing, and native OneDrive file structuring.
Pilot at £450/month or £1,350/term · Backed by our 14-Day Operational Relief Guarantee · Zero setup fees
Your compliance process might be perfectly fine. But executing it consumes internal capacity that could otherwise be used for recruitment and placements.
Consultants lose half their working week chasing headteacher references, auditing 5-year career gaps, and formatting PDF dossiers instead of speaking with clients and booking shifts.
Candidates sit stalled in compliance for two to three weeks. By the time paperwork is verified, supply teachers have taken work with competing agencies. Upcoming Ofsted inspections create panic because files are scattered.
We provide the operational capacity to actually do the work. You hand us the onboarding queue, and our team keeps it moving.
We manage both new candidate onboarding and ongoing monitoring - delivering completed files and updates directly to your secure drive.
Recruiters simply drop a candidate’s name, role, email, and phone number (or forward their CV) into your agency’s dedicated VIP WhatsApp or Slack channel.
The candidate receives a co-branded mobile link. Zero logins, zero passwords. They snap photos of their ID, proof of address, DBS, and KCSIE declarations from their smartphone.
Our operational desk manages courteous, automated and manual follow-ups every 24 to 48 hours for missing documents and contacts school referees directly.
Our team verifies credentials against live UK public registers: the Gov.uk DBS Update Service, DfE Teacher Services (TRA, QTS, Section 128), and Home Office Right to Work share codes.
Approved, standardized candidate dossiers stream directly into your existing Microsoft OneDrive or Google Workspace under clean folders organized by recruiter and candidate name.
We run monthly DBS Update Service sweeps and track the 12-week break in service rule across your active working locums, proactively flagging renewals before shifts are disrupted.

A full-scope administrative compliance desk tailored to education recruitment & KCSIE guidance.
Passport verification, Biometric Residence Permits (BRP), and Home Office online share code checks.
Live lookups against the DfE Teacher Services portal verifying QTS, Prohibition from Teaching orders, and Section 128 management barring directions.
Enhanced DBS verification, initial certificate audits, and recurring automated status sweeps via the Gov.uk DBS Update Service.
Auditing 5-year chronological timelines to the 28-day rule, obtaining explanations, and capturing KCSIE Part 1 and Childcare Disqualification declarations.
Collecting and validating professional references from authenticated school domains, ensuring at least one reference is from the most recent Headteacher or Principal.
Monitoring the 12-week break in service rule for active supply staff to ensure DBS checks remain valid for immediate school deployment.
Continuous monitoring of up to 40 placed candidates, preventing non-compliant placements.
Any document discrepancy, criminal record disclosure, or safeguarding concern is immediately flagged and escalated to your Compliance Director.
When a teacher clears our compliance desk, we instantly generate a standardized School Vetting Confirmation Summary PDF directly into your OneDrive.
Just attach it to your morning booking email. Your partner schools receive the exact pre-appointment check dates they need to paste straight into their Single Central Record (SCR) before that teacher even arrives on site.
Issued under DfE Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE)
"This document confirms all statutory vetting checks have been completed prior to placement."
Dextro establishes clear operational boundaries. We are not an Employment Business or an Umbrella Body, and we do not make legal hiring decisions. We act as your specialized administrative engine.
Start with your real candidate queue and your active compliance workload. If within the first 14 calendar days your recruitment consultants do not experience tangible operational relief and faster file turnaround, simply let us know. We will step away and issue an immediate 100% refund of your initial payment. No arguments.
We'll look at your current candidate compliance workflow and explain exactly how we'd take the administration off your consultants' desks.
Dextro is engineered specifically to eliminate data custody concerns under the UK Data Protection Act 2018 and UK GDPR Chapter V:
Everything you need to know about how Dextro operates.
Within 24 hours. On a 15-minute setup call, we complete a 60-second secure Microsoft OAuth authorization that connects our desk to your OneDrive. Once connected, your recruiters can immediately drop candidate details into your dedicated WhatsApp channel.
No. We built Dextro specifically to eliminate software fatigue. Your recruiters never log into a dashboard. They simply forward candidate details or CVs into your agency’s VIP channel, and completed candidate packs appear neatly filed inside their existing OneDrive.
No. Dextro manages the administrative compliance lifecycle. We verify document authenticity, cross-reference public registers, chase referees, and flag missing or conflicting items. Final safeguarding suitability, interview sign-off, and placement decisions remain with your agency’s Managing Director.
Beyond onboarding up to 15 new candidates each month, our desk actively monitors up to 40 candidates currently working shifts. We run scheduled status sweeps on the Gov.uk DBS Update Service, check professional registers (TRA/QTS) for status currency, and track KCSIE renewal dates, alerting you 30 to 45 days before any certificate expires.
We operate strictly as a Data Processor under a comprehensive UK GDPR Data Processing Addendum (incorporating the UK IDTA). Candidate files stream directly into your agency-controlled UK cloud tenancy. Sensitive identity and safeguarding records are never permanently stored on external databases or local staff workstations.
You have full flexibility. Extra candidate files beyond your monthly tier of 15 are processed at a flat fee of £35 per completed candidate pack, or you can add a second dedicated desk for high-volume divisions.
