Daily food quality audits in every school kitchen

Paper logbooks are hard to verify and easy to leave half-finished on a busy service day. mpro5 guides school kitchen teams through every check on mobile, step by step, and sends the results straight to managers.

  • A structured daily audit. Teams work through every food quality check, from menu accuracy to the right ingredients being used.
  • Food safety checks built in, including temperature checks, opening checks and food safety logbook records.
  • Nothing left incomplete. Every task is tracked and verified, so missed checks are flagged rather than discovered later.

“Compliance is a huge priority for us and part of that is completing audits. Now we have mpro5 it is so much easier to do these quickly and, crucially, do them right.”

– Compass Group

The right meal for every pupil

In schools, serving the wrong meal to a child with a medical diet or allergy can have serious consequences. mpro5 builds dietary checks into every service, so the right meal reaches the right pupil every time.

  • Dietary requirements checked daily as part of the food quality audit.
  • Medical diet checks recorded at site level, with failures flagged straight away.
  • Allergen checks recorded with photo evidence where it matters.

Corrective actions with a full audit trail

When a check fails, the fix matters as much as the record. mpro5 turns every failed check into a tracked corrective action, replacing spreadsheets and email chains.

  • Remedial workflows triggered automatically the moment an audit flags an issue.
  • Tracked to resolution, with an owner and a full audit trail for every action.
  • Alerts to the right manager when actions are overdue.

See compliance across every school, instantly

With hundreds or thousands of school kitchens, central teams can’t visit every site. mpro5 gives head office and regional managers a live view of compliance across every school.

  • Live dashboards show what’s been done across every school, region and client, with deeper insight in Analytics & Reporting.
  • Regional quality assurance audits let regional managers see site-level data and act on issues quickly.
  • Compliance at the touch of a button, ready for clients, inspectors or internal reviews.

Know which checks were really done

A ticked box doesn’t always mean the job was done. mpro5 looks at how every check was completed, not just whether it was, and flags the ones that don’t look right, so you can see which sites to trust and which need a closer look.

  • Rushed checks. A check finished far faster than it could realistically be done gets flagged, so you can spot teams ticking through instead of checking.
  • Too many N/As. When a site marks the same question “not applicable” again and again, mpro5 picks it up before it hides a real gap.
  • Missing photo evidence. Checks that need a photo but don’t have one are flagged straight away, not found at the next audit.
  • Copy-and-paste answers. Identical answers across every question and every day are a sign checks are being filled in, not carried out.

What is education compliance software?

Education compliance software replaces the paper logbooks, spreadsheets and separate apps that nurseries, schools and universities use to record statutory checks, maintenance, food safety and site safety. mpro5 schedules every check, guides staff through it on a phone or tablet, flags failures, assigns the fix and keeps a time-stamped audit trail you can show an inspector, governor or insurer.

Who uses mpro5 in education?

Nurseries and nursery groups, schools and multi-academy trusts, independent and boarding schools, colleges and universities, along with the estates, facilities, compliance and catering teams that support them. Chartwells uses mpro5 to complete daily food quality audits across more than 2,000 school sites.

Can mpro5 help us prepare for an Ofsted or ISI inspection?

Yes. mpro5 keeps the evidence of your site safety, maintenance and food safety checks complete, organised and ready to show whenever it is asked for, with outstanding actions visible in advance so nothing comes as a surprise on the day.

Does mpro5 manage safeguarding?

mpro5 handles safeguarding-related site checks, such as perimeter and gate checks, visitor and contractor sign-in, and opening and lock-up routines, plus welfare observations in nurseries and boarding houses. It works alongside your safeguarding case management system rather than replacing it.

How does mpro5 handle fire, water and asbestos checks?

Each statutory check sits on its own schedule with reminders before it falls due. Staff or contractors complete it on mobile with photo evidence, any failure raises a corrective action automatically, and the full history is stored by site for audit.

How does mpro5 help with school food safety, allergens and medical diets?

Kitchen teams complete daily food safety and HACCP checks on mobile, and dietary and allergen checks are built into every service and recorded per site. Failures are flagged to managers straight away, with photo evidence where needed.

Can a multi-academy trust see compliance across all its schools?

Yes. Central estates, compliance and catering teams get a live dashboard across every academy, can benchmark sites against each other, spot the ones that need attention and pull evidence and reports without chasing individual schools.

Can we buy mpro5 through G-Cloud?

Yes. mpro5 is listed on G-Cloud 15, so eligible public sector organisations, including trusts, colleges and universities, can buy through the framework.

How quickly can we get started?

Our team builds your checks, sites and forms for you, free of charge, and most settings are live within weeks.
