Problems we solve & What you get
Before
ParentPay for dinners, SchoolCloud for parents evening, Google Forms for trips, texts for comms, spreadsheets for clubs—parents juggle multiple logins and admin re-keys everything
After
One portal for parents, one dashboard for admin—clubs, trips, payments, parent evenings, and messages all connected with real-time status and mobile-first design
Problems we solve
- Parents get 5 different apps for clubs, trips, payments, parent evenings, and messages—there's no single school portal.
- I have ParentPay for dinners, SchoolCloud for parents evening, a Google Form for trips, and texts for snow days—why can't this be one app?
- The school app hasn't been updated since 2015 and crashes every time I try to pay for a trip
- I missed the residential trip payment deadline because the reminder went to my old email in a completely different system
- As a school admin, I spend half my day re-keying data between our MIS, payment system, and communications tool
- Parents constantly call reception asking 'did my payment go through?' because the system gives no confirmation

Why it works better
See it in action
The moments that make you think: "This is exactly what I needed"
One login for everything — clubs, trips, payments, and parent evenings all in one place
“Everything's in one place — I don't need ParentMail AND SchoolCloud AND the school app any more!”
When: Parent logs in and sees all school activity in one dashboard
“I signed the consent form, paid the deposit, and confirmed medical info — on the bus, on my phone!”
When: Parent receives a trip consent notification and signs in
Digital consent, payment, and medical info collected in one flow on any device
See exactly which parents have engaged — chase the 3 who haven't, not the 200 who have
“I can see exactly which 3 parents haven't signed the trip consent — I'll send them a quick SMS reminder right now instead of chasing paper forms for a week!”
When: School admin opens the engagement dashboard and sees which parents haven't read the newsletter or signed consent
“I can see trips, clubs, parent evenings, productions, and visitor sign-ins all on one screen — I used to have 5 different browser tabs open for this!”
When: School admin sees all 5 module activities in one unified dashboard for the first time
All 5 modules in one screen — no more juggling browser tabs for trips, clubs, parents' evenings, productions, and sign-ins
Fair lottery allocation — every parent sees the outcome instantly, no refresh wars, no favouritism
“No more refresh wars! The system ran the fair allocation lottery and my child got their first-choice club — all transparent, no favouritism.”
When: 200 parents try to book 30 places in football club
“We ran the governor election online, and every parent could vote on their phone.”
When: School runs first digital parent governor election
Digital governor elections that parents can complete on their phones
