Our Payment System

We have introduced a new system called ParentPay to facilitate parents to make electronic payments for items of expenditure. Payments can be made 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with a debit/credit card through a secure online account on ParentPay.

Via ParentPay, you can make payments for trips, events, activities, textbooks, resource packs and other school expenses.
