S21 School Badge Lookup
Identify schools from imagery when a badge is the only lead
When a school badge is the only visible lead, delays matter.
S21 School Badge Lookup enables investigators to identify schools from partial or low-quality imagery using a comprehensive, offline database spanning multiple countries.
Search by school, region, or visual description and surface likely matches in seconds.
Why this capability matters
When identification is delayed, safeguarding is delayed
In many investigations, the earliest visual indicators are limited, partial, or unclear. School badges and uniform insignia frequently appear in imagery long before a victim, location, or context is known.
When identification relies on manual searching or personal knowledge, valuable time is lost at the very point speed matters most.
Faster identification from imagery
Move from partial or low-quality badge imagery to likely school matches in seconds.
Consistent, repeatable searches
Remove reliance on individual knowledge or ad-hoc web searches.
Earlier safeguarding decisions
Support faster intelligence development when school identification is the first lead.
S21 School Badge Lookup focuses on one investigative task — identifying schools from imagery — and does it quickly, securely, and offline.

How S21 School Badge Lookup works
Investigators often have only a partial badge, crest, or uniform detail to work with.
S21 School Badge Lookup is a standalone, offline investigative tool designed specifically to identify schools from imagery using whatever information is available — including partial visual descriptions, regions, colours, symbols, or known text.
Investigators can search by:
School name or partial name
Region or country
Visual characteristics (e.g. colours, animals, symbols, shapes, wording)
The system returns likely matches in seconds, allowing investigators to quickly narrow down candidate schools and progress identification without manual web searching or reliance on personal knowledge.
S21 School Badge Lookup supports investigations across Great Britain, Ireland, Canada, the USA, and Australia, with additional regions added over time.
It works alongside your existing forensic and investigative tools. Media can be exported from any system and analysed directly — with no changes to your current workflow.
Fully Offline & Secure
Sensitive imagery and investigative material never leaves your environment.
Designed for investigative reality
Built for DFUs, safeguarding teams, and frontline investigators — not generic image search.
No specialist infastructure required
Runs on existing workstations without servers, cloud services, or complex deployment.
