What are the benefits to parents, pupils and the school?

School Gateway is easy to use and will offer you the freedom to make online payments whenever and wherever you like, 24/7.
Your children will not have to worry about losing money in school.

You can help us to reduce workloads for our staff, creating more time to lend to the smooth running of the school.

How to activate your account

  3. Press ‘Send PIN’. You will receive a text message with your unique PIN.
  4. You’re now ready to log in and start using School Gateway.
  5. If you don’t have a smartphone or prefer to use a computer, you can set up your account using the web version of School Gateway.

How to log in

Once you have your PIN, go ahead and launch the School Gateway app on your smartphone or tablet.

Enter the email you have registered with your school and the PIN you received. If you didn’t get a PIN, it is likely because your school doesn’t have the right contact info. Get in touch with them to check.

If both the email and PIN are entered correctly, hit ‘Login’ and you’re ready to start engaging with your school.
