ParentPay

We are a cash-free school and we ensure all our parents/carers have access to ParentPay.

Every parent/carer will receive information to activate their ParentPay account and start browsing at the system. Details on individual accounts such as Dinner Money, Milk Money and Trips can all be accessed vai the account/app.

Many of you will already have a bank account and maybe used to using on-line apps, however if you do not and would still wish to pay in cash, you will still have the option of doing this using a PayPoint Bar Code.

These can be used at local stores and whilst still paying cash the bar code is personal to you and updates ParentPay within 48 hours. Full Details are shown on the PayPoint information letter.

Please remember to activate your ParentPay login details as soon as you can. If you will be needing a PayPoint Bar Code, please advise school by emailing office@beechwoodprimaryschool.co.uk.

Or if you have any other queries regarding our systems please contact the above email address also.

Thank you.
