School Gateway Schoolcomms Online Payments System

At Lulworth & Winfrith Primary School, we operate a cashless school office.  Once your child has started school with us, we invite all our parents to download the free School Gateway app, available from Google Play and the App Store. The school office will use this app to send and receive messages to and from parents, manage parent bookings for Larks and Owls wraparound care, payments for clubs, trips and events.

To register on the app, you will need to enter your mobile phone number and email address.  You will then receive a PIN number to access your account.  Once registration has been completed, you will be able to use Schoolcomms to carry out the activities listed in your invitation straight away.

Wraparound Care Bookings

Larks and Owls wraparound care bookings are now available to book on Schoolcomms.  When you book your child’s place, you will be able to select the time slot that you require and the date.  The app will also be able to tell you if there are any spaces available on the club (for example, if it says 12/20, this means that 12 out of the 20 places available are already booked). 

Please note that to book a place you will need to pay for the session at the time of booking.  If you pay via Government Gateway Childcare voucher’s, you will need to let us know before you try and book your child’s sessions.  The app will then let you book your sessions and then you will need to make payment via your voucher scheme.  Bookings will be able to be made and cancelled online up to 30 minutes before the start of each club session (7am for Larks and 2.30pm for Owls), so this should mean that you will no longer need to contact the school office to book your sessions.

If you have any difficulties logging into this system, please contact the school office who will try to help you.
