Sound familiar?

"Reception is the only access control"

Every parent, guest lecturer or contractor passes the same desk. At busy times a queue forms. Staff are busy with admin while visitors wait.

"Staff and students have separate passes for car park and building"

Double administration. Onboarding a new staff member means manual entry in multiple systems.

"Open day or conference is a logistics project every time"

Hundreds of external visitors with a paper list at the door. One person coordinates everything and spends the day under pressure.

One system for staff, students and visitors

Revtek connects your HR and student administration to access control and parking management. Staff and students admitted automatically, visitors time-limited.

Guest list loaded in one step

For an open day, conference or exam day, upload the participant list as an Excel file. Everyone automatically receives a personal QR code, with no manual entry.

Visitor registration for schools, by type of visitor

A school or college receives a different mix of visitors from an office. Parents come in for a meeting with a form tutor, guest lecturers teach a session, contractors work on the building during the holidays and suppliers arrive early in the morning with deliveries for the canteen. Revtek records every visitor with a name, a licence plate and a time window, so reception knows who is on site and who they are there to see.

Guest lecturers and speakers

The member of staff who invites the guest enters their name, plate and time window in the dashboard, or sends a WhatsApp message. When the same guest lecturer comes in on fixed days all term, you set up one recurring booking: weekly, fortnightly or monthly.

Parents and carers

For a parents' meeting, the teacher includes a registration link with the invitation. The parent enters their own plate and the teacher has nothing else to do. On arrival, the barrier opens within the booked time window.

Contractors and maintenance staff

A decorator working on site for two weeks of the summer holidays gets access for exactly that period. After the end date the barrier no longer opens for that plate, and nobody has to remember to revoke it.

Suppliers

Regular deliveries for the canteen or the site team go in as recurring bookings. When an unexpected van pulls up at the barrier, a member of staff lets it in from the live camera feed.

Campus parking management for schools, colleges and universities

On most campuses, staff, students and visitors share the same car park. You set a capacity for each group, for example a fixed number of spaces for staff and a share for visitors. Live counters show how many spaces each group is using. If the visitor allocation is full at the requested time, the system offers an alternative slot.

If the institution has several buildings with their own car parks, you manage them as separate zones in one account. A display at the entrance shows current occupancy, so visitors drive straight to a car park with free spaces.

Licence plate recognition at the barrier

  • Works with existing Axis, Hikvision, Bosch, Hanwha and Dahua cameras
  • Recognition runs on a device on site, so the barrier keeps working if the internet connection drops
  • A dirty plate or one misread character still gets a registered car in
  • Separate capacity for staff, students and visitors
  • Multiple zones, for example one per building or site

How a school registers a visitor

1

Book the visit

A member of staff enters name, plate and time window in the dashboard or via WhatsApp. Or they send the visitor a link to fill in the plate themselves.

2

Questions answered beforehand

The WhatsApp assistant answers questions about directions, parking rules or opening hours from a knowledge base the school fills in once.

3

Arrival at the barrier

The camera reads the plate and the barrier opens within the time window. Reception admits a visitor without a booking from the camera feed.

4

Arrival and departure recorded

The dashboard shows who is on site. Webhooks pass arrivals and departures on to the school's other systems.

Open days, exams and parents' evenings

On a normal school day, visitors arrive spread across the day. On an open day or at a graduation ceremony many more cars reach the entrance at once, and you want to know in advance how many spaces you will need.

Open days

Visitors register their plate in advance through the registration link. You raise the visitor capacity for that day while staff spaces stay reserved. If the parking route changes, one WhatsApp broadcast reaches every registered visitor.

Exam days

Register external invigilators and examiners in advance, so they drive onto the site without stopping at reception. The display at the entrance shows which car park still has room, which cuts down on cars circling the exam hall.

Hiring out the hall or sports centre

When the school hires out its hall or sports centre for an event, visitors can pay for parking online in advance. Discount codes give volunteers or participants free entry.

School access control and the GDPR

Schools have children on site, so you need to know exactly what data an access control system keeps and for how long. Revtek records the plates of vehicles passing the barrier and deletes plate snapshots automatically after 7 days. Processing is designed around the GDPR from the start.

Visitors and students install no app and create no account: registering and asking questions both happen in WhatsApp. Our checklist on ANPR and the GDPR covers what to agree with a supplier about plate recognition.

Connecting to the school's access control system

If the school already uses Paxton Net2 or Paxton10 or Salto KS on its doors, Revtek connects to it and that system stays in place. Webhooks (visitor.arrived and visitor.departed) send arrivals and departures on to other software.

Revtek carries out the site survey, installation and service itself in Greater London, the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. Monthly costs are on the pricing page.

Visitor registration and parking in education

A member of staff books the visitor with a name, licence plate and time window, in the dashboard or via WhatsApp. You can also send the visitor a link so they enter their own plate. On arrival the camera reads the plate and the barrier opens within the booked time window.

Revtek records the plates of vehicles passing the barrier. Plate snapshots are deleted automatically after 7 days, and processing is designed around the GDPR from the start. Visitors and students do not need to install an app or create an account, because registration happens in WhatsApp.

Yes. You create one recurring booking, weekly, fortnightly or monthly, with the same plate and time window. The guest lecturer then drives onto the site each time without a new registration.

Visitors register their plate in advance. You set a higher visitor capacity for that day while staff spaces stay reserved. Live counters and a display at the entrance show occupancy per car park. If a time slot is full, the system offers an alternative. A single WhatsApp broadcast reaches every registered visitor.

A member of staff sees the car on the live camera feed and admits the visitor manually. For registered visitors, a dirty plate or one misread character does not stop the barrier opening, because the plate matching allows for it.
