IRIS acquires software specialist Every
IRIS Software Group, one of the UK’s largest providers of specialist education software, has acquired Every, a compliance and HR management solution provider for the education sector.
Founded in 2010, Every works with schools and Multi-Academy Trusts (MATs) in the UK, providing an end-to-end system for ensuring adherence to statutory compliance requirements relating to policies, facilities, and equipment, enabling them to reduce risk across the entire school estate. Every developed an integrated HR solution that launched to market early this year.
HR is more complex in education due to specific pay scales, salary structures, and pension filings. Every’s solution provides integrated, centralised, real-time digital records for HR and finance teams that saves significant time and resources on reporting and tracking and managing staff absence.
More than 12,000 UK schools and trusts use IRIS and one in five UK employees is paid via IRIS payroll solutions and globally, IRIS processes six million payslips every month.
Ian Bond, Founder of Every, says:
“It’s now more important than ever to make sure education professionals have the tools to make their jobs more manageable, empower them with better decision making, and identify more efficient ways of working.”
