School Gateway

School Gateway (also known as SchoolComms) is our service provider for emails, texts messages (electronic communication) and payments.

This system uses the contact details that we already hold on our school records. To make payments and give consent for visits you will need to register with the School Gateway App. More information on how the School Gateway app works is available here: https://schoolgateway.co.uk/#modal

If you have an Apple or Android device, we recommend that you use the app School Gateway as it is the easiest way to access all our communications and make payments. A short video showing how to register for the app is available here: https://vimeo.com/356135357

  • Receive all communication electronically
  • See letters (including newsletters) in your email inbox or via the app
  • Get a short text or app message if we need to contact you urgently

Please note that we will no longer be sending information home on paper.  We are finding that printed letters can get lost and want to be certain that important information is delivered to you promptly. It is therefore vital that we have an email address for you.
