Why now

Admissions teams need a better layer before the MIS.

Save registrar time

Stop rebuilding events, copying attendee lists, chasing parents manually and preparing funnel reports from scratch.

Improve conversion

Turn open-day attendance into tailored next steps, deadline nudges and clearer application momentum.

Understand demand

Know which entry points, postcodes and marketing sources are producing genuine applications.

Build parent trust

Verified data makes Houseroom more reliable for parents and gives schools direct control over public facts.

Product

Everything the admissions front door should handle.

Start with the free profile. Add booking, enquiries and analytics as soon as the team wants to reduce admin and improve follow-up.

Free verified school profile

Give parents authoritative data managed by the school itself, so the profile stays current and on-message.

  • Fees, entry points and admissions contacts
  • Open days, tours, deadlines and offer dates
  • Scholarships, bursaries, policies and useful documents

Open Day Manager

Replace scattered event tools with booking designed for admissions teams.

  • Branded event pages, capacity limits and waitlists
  • Private tour requests and QR check-in
  • Automated confirmations, reminders and post-event follow-up

Enquiry Manager

Capture parent and child context before interest disappears into inboxes and spreadsheets.

  • Parent profile, child profile and year-of-entry tracking
  • Bursary, boarding, scholarship and learning-support flags
  • Registrar task list, notes and follow-up reminders

Admissions analytics

Show the team where demand is coming from and where the funnel is weakening.

  • Enquiries, bookings, attendance and no-show rates
  • Conversion by source, postcode and entry point
  • Forecasts against target places and weak year groups

Team roles and governance

Admissions data is sensitive. Schools need control from the first enquiry.

  • Invite owners, admins, editors and viewers
  • Consent capture, exports, retention controls and audit logs
  • School-side permissions before deeper admissions workflow

Works before the MIS

Houseroom is not trying to replace your core school system on day one.

  • Keep iSAMS, WCBS, OpenApply, Engage or Veracross as your record
  • Use Houseroom for demand capture and parent follow-up
  • Export clean data when the admissions team needs it

Who we serve

Built for the teams who turn interest into applications.

Houseroom gives each role a clearer view of the same parent journey, from first profile visit to attended open day and next application step.

Registrars

Keep open-day bookings, private tour requests, notes and follow-up tasks in one admissions workspace.

Admissions directors

See demand by entry point, source and stage without rebuilding reports from spreadsheets every week.

Marketing teams

Understand which channels create qualified enquiries, visits and applications rather than anonymous traffic.

Heads and SLT

Read the admissions funnel clearly: weak year groups, missed follow-up, event conversion and forecast demand.

Integrations

Fits around the systems your school already trusts.

The first job is not a heavy migration. Houseroom captures cleaner demand data, keeps parent follow-up moving and hands structured records to your existing stack.
