Make online payments to school via our new app

We have now moved away from School Gateway to our new system, which is called Arbor.

This will provide significant advantages for school as we can now integrate attendance, payments, school meal billing, messaging to parents, trips and clubs in the same system. It also gives parents the ability to log in and see club bookings, see what’s been billed to them and make payments as well as check some of the details we hold to see if they are accurate (and let school know if they are in need of updating).

Aside from saving the school time and money on administration, Arbor for the first time adds the ability to pay for things using credit or debit card. It makes paying for school items easier and more flexible for parents and reduces the amount of cash being carried by children on school premises. We would encourage you to use it as part of our move towards becoming a cashless school.

Not used an online parent app before?

Activating your Arbor account is quick and easy to do. All you need is the email address that the school holds for you. Go to the Arbor login page here, put in your email, choose West Lane, then follow the Forgotten (or Reset) Password link. That sends an email to you – follow the link in that to set your password and get in to the system. You’ll need the birth dates of your children, as a security check.

Trouble logging in?

It may be because the school doesn’t have your current email on record. Please contact the school and we’ll update the details on our system.
