Making secure payments online using your credit or debit card
ParentPay offers you the freedom to make payments whenever and wherever you like, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week – safe in the knowledge that the technology used is of the highest internet security available.
You will have a secure online account, activated using a unique username and password; you will be prompted to change these, and to keep them safe and secure. If you have more than one child at our school, you can merge their accounts to create one login for all your children.
Making a payment is straightforward and ParentPay holds a payment history for you to view at a later date; no card details are stored in any part of the system. Once you’ve activated your account you can make online payments straight away.
Except in exceptional circumstances, we no longer accept cash or cheques. We hope you will support us in achieving our goal to become a cashless school and enabling savings in administration costs which will be redeployed towards your child’s learning. Your support in using ParentPay will help the school enormously, thank you.
