Poltair School Signs up to Schoolgateway

What is School Gateway?

School Gateway is the parent portal (smartphone app and website) which you can access to make online payments to top up your child’s meal balance for use in the school canteen, as well as paying for school trips, events and equipment. You can use School Gateway to make online payments with a debit or credit card any time 24-7, via smartphone app or website. You can also view school meal balances and top them up. It makes paying for school meals easier and more flexible for parents and you can also limit the amount of money your child spends each day with School Gateway.

Please note that the Poltair School finance office does not accept cash payments/cheques so you must use School Gateway to pay online for school meals, trips, events and equipment. Pupils can however credit their canteen meal accounts with cash using the machines placed in the school canteen.

Activating your School Gateway account is quick and easy to do

All you need are your email address and mobile telephone number that school holds on record for you. This information is provided when you complete your child’s school Admission form.

When you launch School Gateway for the first time and select ‘New User’ you will need to enter the email address and mobile telephone number you have registered with the school.

Trouble logging in?

Do we have your current email and mobile phone number on record? If you have made recent changes to these then perhaps we have not been advised. Still a problem, please contact the school on 01726 874520 or email [email protected] and we’ll update the details on our system or try to resolve the logging in problem.
