AI agents for London school offices, registrars and trust teams.

Education AI agent development London schools can trust starts with a narrow job and a named owner. Codeeo builds agents for state schools, independent schools, academy trusts and colleges across the capital that explain Pan London admissions to parents, triage in year moves between boroughs, organise cover, draft trip paperwork and help teachers write feedback faster. Each agent works from your documents, keeps a full record of its actions and hands sensitive matters to staff.

London schools deal with families who move often, staff who commute long distances and parents who write in dozens of languages. The agents we build are there to absorb that volume for your team, never to replace their judgement about pupils.

Agents we build for London settings

Ten jobs London education staff hand to an agent, with a person still in charge.

London has thirty two boroughs and the City, each running its own admissions team inside one shared system for school places. Pupils move between boroughs mid year, families rent rather than own and change address often, and many staff travel across the city to work. Independent schools sit alongside academies and maintained schools, sometimes on the same street. All of this produces a heavy, repetitive load of questions, forms and rearrangements in the school office. An AI agent helps when it is given one of those jobs, a clear set of source documents and a rule about when to stop and ask a person. These are the agents London settings ask us about most. The order below is roughly how often we are asked, not the order you should build them in.

Explain your project
  • Pan London admissions explainer

    Families apply for Reception and Year 7 places through the London eAdmissions portal, naming up to six schools under the equal preference system. The agent explains how preferences work, what your school's oversubscription criteria say and where to find the home borough's deadlines, quoting only the documents you load each year.

    Parents stop asking whether ranking your school second lowers their chances.

  • In year move triage

    When a family moves into the area mid year, the agent collects the details your admissions officer needs, checks them against your in year process and the relevant borough's rules, and builds a tidy case for a person to decide. It never offers or refuses a place.

    In year applications arrive complete, which shortens the time a child waits out of school.

  • Daily cover coordination

    Transport disruption and long commutes mean late notice absences are common. Staff report by message, and the agent proposes cover from the timetable and free periods, balances who has covered recently and sends the plan to the cover manager to approve before registration.

    Cover is arranged before the first bell rather than during it.

  • Trip letters and risk assessment drafts

    The DfE guidance names trip planning as an admin task AI can support. For a museum visit or a field trip, the agent drafts the parent letter, a consent form and a risk assessment outline from your templates, for the trip leader and educational visits coordinator to complete and approve.

    Trip leaders spend their time on the real risks, not on formatting documents.

  • Independent school registrar assistant

    Registrars at London independent schools answer families from across the UK and overseas about visits, registration, entrance assessments and bursary application steps. The agent handles those questions from your published information and books families into your existing visit slots, leaving any discussion of individual circumstances to the registrar.

    Prospective families get prompt answers at any hour, and the registrar sees a cleaner pipeline.

  • Governor and trustee pack summaries

    Board packs grow long. The agent prepares a cover summary of each paper, lists the decisions requested and links each point to its page, so governors arrive prepared. The clerk checks the summary before it is circulated.

    Meetings spend less time on catching up and more on decisions.

  • Multilingual parent correspondence

    London classrooms hear a very wide range of home languages. The agent translates routine letters and drafts replies to parent messages in the family's preferred language, with English kept as the record. Staff approve each draft before it goes.

    Routine information reaches families who struggle with English letters.

  • Subject access request preparation

    When a parent or former pupil asks for their data under UK GDPR, the agent logs the request and its deadline, searches the systems you authorise and assembles a draft bundle for your data protection lead to review and redact. Nothing is released without that review.

    Requests are tracked from day one and answered within the legal time limit.

  • Marking moderation support

    For internal assessments, the agent compares a sample of marked scripts against your mark scheme and flags where marks across a department look inconsistent, so the head of department knows which scripts to moderate first. Marks stay with teachers.

    Moderation time goes to the scripts most likely to need it.

  • New staff onboarding guide

    With staff joining during the year as well as in September, an onboarding agent answers practical questions about behaviour policy, systems, routines and who to ask, using your staff handbook, and reminds new starters of the safeguarding training they must complete.

    New colleagues settle faster without pulling senior staff away from lessons.

Who this is for

Where a London school or trust usually starts.

London settings differ so much that one plan rarely fits two of them. A primary in an outer borough with a stable roll has different pressure points from an inner London secondary with high pupil mobility, and both differ from a fee paying school or a college serving adults across several boroughs. These four starting points cover most of the conversations we have, and each one leads to a different first agent with a different owner.

01

An inner London school with high pupil mobility

Schools that admit and lose pupils throughout the year carry a constant admissions workload outside the normal rounds. Pairing the in year triage agent with multilingual correspondence means new families get clear information quickly and your admissions officer receives complete cases. The agent also keeps a running list of leavers so records and transfers are not forgotten. Where the borough's fair access protocol applies, the agent simply flags the case so staff can follow the local process.

Admissions decisions always stay with your admissions officer or the borough.

02

A trust running academies across several boroughs

A trust with schools in different London boroughs works with several admissions teams, each with its own documents. We build a platform where each academy has its own data and settings, shared trust policies sit in one place and central staff see reports across schools without opening individual pupil records.

Separation between academies is part of the design, not a setting added later.

03

An independent school with a busy registry

Registrars field questions from families in London, the rest of the UK and abroad, often outside office hours. A registrar agent answers from your published information, books visits and keeps every enquiry in your admissions system. Bursary and individual circumstances are passed to staff, and the agent never quotes fees or makes promises about places. Many London registries also juggle several entry points, such as 4+, 7+, 11+ and sixth form, so the agent keeps each entry route's steps and dates separate and never mixes them up in a reply.

04

A college or sixth form serving several boroughs

Colleges take applications from students across many boroughs as well as adults returning to study. An enquiry agent covering courses, entry requirements, interview booking and enrolment documents absorbs the late summer surge, and passes questions about learner support funding, visas or special educational needs to the right adviser. For adult learners, the agent can explain which courses run in the evening or online, using only the timetable you publish.

Six stages from first conversation to an agent your staff rely on.

  1. 01Shadow the work on videoWe watch your office team handle real requests over video calls, note every decision and agree which steps an agent can prepare and which need a person.
  2. 02Data protection firstYour data protection officer, the DPIA, retention and access are settled before any pupil or parent data reaches the agent.
  3. 03Curate the sourcesWe build a versioned store of your admissions arrangements, policies, templates and handbooks, with a named owner responsible for keeping each document current.
  4. 04Build the approval routeDrafts go to the right role for sign off. Safeguarding concerns, complaints and legal requests are recognised and routed to people from day one.
  5. 05Pilot in one areaOne office or department uses the agent on real work for a set period, records problems and agrees fixes before wider rollout.
  6. 06Review every termReports show request volumes, staff edits and refusals. We meet each term to retire weak behaviour and add the next task.

Technology

What we build this with.

Models, hosting and connectors are chosen around your existing systems, whether that is SIMS, Arbor or Bromcom, an independent school admissions platform, or a college student records system. UK hosting is available when your data protection officer requires it. Agents can sit inside Microsoft Teams, Google Chat or your parent app, so staff do not have to learn another screen.

What London schools ask before commissioning an AI agent.

With the single task that takes most office time in your busiest month.

For many London primaries that is admissions questions in the autumn, for secondaries it is cover and parent correspondence, and for independent schools it is registry enquiries. We look at your inbox, phone logs and staff time on video calls, then recommend one agent with a clear owner. Starting narrow keeps the data protection work manageable and gives staff an early result they can judge for themselves.
