Parent/carers School Communication & Payment System
ParentMail
Communicating with parents and carers is an important part of what we do, making sure you get the correct information about activities, events and school news that really matters is something we care about. As you know, the school uses ParentMail, a service used by over 6,000 schools, nurseries and children's clubs to communicate to parents.
We use ParentMail for the following activities:
- Communications
- Absence reporting - Please remember to email info@dulverton.education with any documentation for a medical appointment
- Completion of forms
- Booking and payment of pupil school lunches - All meals must be booked 7 days in advance (please remember to book school meals in the holidays as the 7 day in advance still applies)
- Booking and paying for Breakfast & After School Club
- Payment of trips and events.
Don't forget the ParentMail App!
We'd like to encourage all parents to download the APP as there are a number of benefits both to you and the school:
- You don't need to login to pick up messages or attachments when you use the App.
- The App stores all the messages we send you in one place.
- Every message sent arrives as an instant alert on your mobile.
- You help save us money!

Information about online payments
We're using +Pay on ParentMail - an online payment service which allows you to pay for school items on your smartphone, tablets or computer, or on the free parent App.
We will inform you about items you need to pay through ParentMail, and you will be able to pay electronically, with money transferred directly into the school bank account - it's all very easy, safe and secure. ParentMail doesn't store credit or debit card details and works in the same way as other large retailers who accept online payments. Please see the link below for more information.
