We are excited to announce, that to improve communication with our entire school community, we have launched a smartphone app, which is free to download and works with iPhones and Android phones. Please visit theschool.app for more information.

As a school, we believe it is essential to work in partnership with parents and carers and part of this is achieved by ensuring that you receive clear, relevant and regular communications.

Benefits of the app for Parents and Carers.

• The app is secure; you set up a PIN/ Touch ID to access on your phone
• The app is powered by our school website, which means that when you download it, you will have a single place to receive and access important messages along with calendar events, newsletters, latest news and all information pages within the school website.
• You will receive secure individual and group messages as well as whole school notices

Benefits of the app for the school.

• We will be able to reduce costs as unlike texts, messages we send will be free of charge, and it will reduce our admin time by keeping all communication tools within one place.

To set up the App

• Download the app as a guest user by visiting your app store and searching for TheSchoolApp.
• Please download the app by Wednesday 15^th December 2021 and an invitation will then be sent to the primary contact to set up their access code. Anyone who currently receives text messages as a 2^nd contact will also receive an invitation.

To keep you fully updated, it is important that we have the most up-to-date parent contact details and emergency contacts for your child. If any information changes throughout the school year, please notify us immediately.

Please feel free to contact the school office if you need any further information about this service.
