We are in the process of changing systems and by the end of this week we will be using Weduc rather than School Money, Weduc offers much more and it is all in one place so your one login will allow you to buy uniform, pay for visits, clubs and dinner money, as well as book Parents’ Evening appointments (to name a few) and in addition you will be able to order your child’s dinner through the app and notify us of your child’s absence or appointment (which should save you phone calls and/or leaving answerphone messages).
We ask that you download the Weduc app and I highly recommend having it on your homepage so you can see when you receive messages from us. All parents/carers can have the app which should hopefully save some confusion for example at the moment Parent 1 may get the message but Parent 2 doesn’t know what is going on and our current system limits us to whom we can send messages.
There will be a few other changes that we are having to implement at the same time.
Wraparound Club bookings must be made one week in advance, this is to ensure we have the correct staffing, in exceptional circumstances and subject to availability, office staff will be able to make late bookings, these will be considered on a case by case basis.
It will come as no surprise to any of you that our costs have increased across the board for food and fuel (as well as staffing) we have made the decision not to increase Wraparound Club charges and are keeping them at £5 for a morning session and £10 for an afternoon session however we have had to remove the discounted rate of £12.50 for both sessions. We still feel this is excellent value for money.
The App features a News Feed and Notices page so we can keep you informed of what is going on in school with key information relating to your child(ren) these notices will be personalised to you so we will only inform the Year 2 class about Colomendy information, so this should mean you won’t have to scroll through information that isn’t relevant to you or your child.
We are confident that the new system will work really well and is an improvement on what we currently offer through School Money.
We will send you your login details as soon as we go live however feel free to download the app now so you are ready to go – thanks for your continued support.
