school Apps - communication app
From the 29 May 2026, we will be using School Apps as our main method of giving you information and updates about what is happening at school.
The aim of the School App is that all current information will be available to view on the app until it is no longer relevant, when it will disappear. One of the best features is that you can send absentee notifications to the school directly from the app.

Some answers to your questions:
- The app works with iphones, android phones, ipads and tablets
- For emergency closures during the school day we will still phone you - we need to know that you have received the message and are on your way! The same goes for when your child is feeling ill. For school closures before school starts you will be sent a School Apps alert.
- The initial set up is the key - get this right and you will receive all information promptly and efficiently. There is a support team at School Apps - they can be reached on 0800 238 379 and they are superb at solving any problems as they arise.
