Industry partnership

Partner with ANPR4Schools

Join a network of specialist technology companies helping to bring professional vehicle access security to UK schools — and make a real difference to safeguarding and campus safety.

About the initiative

A not-for-profit partnership model

ANPR4Schools is a not-for-profit initiative. We do not exist to generate profit — we exist to get professional vehicle access security into schools that need it. That means our cost model is different from a commercial supplier network.

Partner organisations are expected to make a financial contribution towards the running costs of the initiative. This donation covers our outreach to schools, our free site survey programme, the resources we provide to schools, and our ongoing support infrastructure.

In return, partners gain meaningful access to a pipeline of school projects across England, Scotland, and Wales — and the opportunity to demonstrate their products and services in one of the most visible and socially important sectors in the UK.
