School Gateway

School Gateway provides parents with a secure online payment system for school meals and trips, allowing consent to be given for trips and events. This means you can pay whenever it’s convenient for you, without having to find the exact change or having to send a cheque into school. You can also see the payment requests for all your children on one screen, including those from other schools that use SchoolComms. Once logged in you can choose which payments to settle using a debit or credit card as well as tracking your payment history and items still outstanding. If you do not have internet access, please do not hesitate to contact the school office who will explain about a voucher payment method

Please download the School Gateway app (IOS and Android).

To register, please sign up for a School Gateway account by visiting www.schoolgateway.com. Enter your current email address and mobile number (these must match the primary contact details you have registered with the school) and select the ‘Send PIN’ button. A PIN will be then be received on your mobile phone to enable you to log into your new School Gateway account. With your School Gateway account, you will be able to view payments and check your balance.
