ParentPay
The Academy does not accept payment by cash or cheque but instead enables all payments to be processed through ParentPay. You can top up your ParentPay account using your credit/debit card or by using cash at local stores where you see the PayPoint logo.
ParentPay is a very secure website and free to use for parents/carers and staff. Payments can be made for school meals, trips, music lessons, equipment and other activities.
- Please see our How to set up ParentPay document or watch the video below for support in setting up an account and making payments.
- Bienvenido a "Pagos de comida del colegio” - por la atencion de padres hispanohablantes.
ParentPay benefits our students and the Academy in many ways not least by removing the risks associated with students carrying cash to the Academy and reducing administration which creates more time to devote to educational support and the smooth running of the Academy.
To use ParentPay you will need your unique user ID and password. Year 7 parents / carers should receive a letter containing their user ID and password as soon as a child is fully registered as a student at the Academy so that they are able to start using ParentPay immediately. ParentPay holds an electronic record of your payments which you can view at a later date.
If you have any questions relating to ParentPay please email Ms Brooks j.brooks@harrispeckham.org.uk
