ParentPay. At Arden we use an e-payment method to pay for dinner money, trips, departmental contributions and school fund contributions etc. This is done online using a very secure website called ParentPay or in cash at local stores where you see the PayPoint logo. If you already have a ParentPay account, either at Arden or another ParentPay school, you can simply login to that account and add your child via the Add a child tab on your home page. You will need the below activation username and password to do this. Unfortunately, if you already have a ParentPay account for the above child at another school you cannot switch this over to Arden; you need to set up a new account but this can then be merged with other ParentPay accounts you may have. You have a secure online account, activated using a unique activation username and password; you will be prompted to change these and to keep them safe and secure as your Username and Password for future logins. ParentPay holds an electronic record of your payments to view at a later date. Once you have activated your account you can make online payments straight away. It is our aim to be a cashless school but we appreciate that some parents are unable to pay using debit or credit cards and so there is a facility to pay cash through Paypoint at an external location (e.g. the Co-op in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇). You will be issued with a child-specific barcode which you will hand to the cashier along with your money and they will credit your account. If you want more details then please contact the school finance office in September. During your child’s time with us, we will gather and use information relating to you.
