ParentPay  

We are using ParentPay because it’s simple, safe, convenient and your child no longer needs to carry cash into school.

All Mercian Educational Trust School's operates a cash and cheque free system for school dinners, trips, activities, wraparound and pre-school care.  You can make payments safely and securely online using a system called ParentPay or if you’d prefer you can use your local PayPoint.

You simply top-up your ParentPay account online by debit or credit card, or in cash through PayPoint stores. Payment by direct debit is also available. Your ParentPay balance can be used immediately to pay for any of your children’s items at any school using ParentPay.
