Earwig Academic Achieves SafeSupplier Accreditation

‍

What Is SafeSupplier Accreditation?

SafeSupplier is an industry-leading supplier verification service by Alcumus, designed to ensure that suppliers meet the highest standards in health and safety, financial stability, quality management, modern slavery prevention, environmental responsibility, and ethical practices. Accreditation provides peace of mind for clients, particularly those in the education, healthcare, and public sectors, where supplier compliance is paramount.

Being accredited means Earwig Academic has undergone a rigorous vetting process and has met or exceeded the benchmark criteria required by SafeSupplier.

Why This Matters

For the hundreds of schools, trusts, and education professionals who already rely on Earwig, this accreditation is further confirmation that:

• ✅ We operate ethically and responsibly
• ✅ We are a safe, sustainable, and trusted partner for education providers
• ✅ Our systems and processes are robust, compliant, and auditable
• ✅ We’re committed to continuous improvement and transparency

In an industry where safeguarding, accountability, and due diligence are non-negotiable, being recognised as a SafeSupplier helps streamline procurement for our clients — especially those operating under strict regulatory and financial controls.

What It Means for Schools

For our current and future customers, the benefits are clear:

• Reduced procurement risk: Earwig is now part of a trusted network of verified suppliers
• Simplified onboarding: Our accreditation may help satisfy internal procurement and compliance checks more efficiently
• Increased trust and transparency: You can be confident that we meet national standards for supplier responsibility and ethics

Whether you’re a small SEND unit or a multi-academy trust, you can count on Earwig not just for our exceptional cutting edge softare, but also for business practices that align with your values.

Another Step Forward

This achievement adds to our growing list of credentials and reflects the culture we’re building — one of quality, trust, and service.

We’re excited to continue supporting special and mainstream schools across the UK as a SafeSupplier-accredited partner, helping educators evidence progress, save time, and deliver exceptional outcomes for pupils.
