Dear Parents/Carers,

School Money - New Cashless Payment System

Blanford Mere Nursery & Primary School are delighted to inform you that we have recently signed up to the online payment system SchoolMoney. This means that you will now have the facility to make payments for school expenses, such as educational visits, online with your debit or credit card.

This new payment system will benefit both us as a school and you as a parent. Not only will you be able to pay for items from the comfort of your own home but you will also be able to access your account at any time to see if there is anything you need to pay for. SchoolMoney will enable us to experience a more streamlined, cost-effective and efficient payment system in a secure and safe environment.

You won't need to sign up to this system as this is done automatically through the school and as long as you have provided us with up to date contact details we will send you a password within the next few days.  Please note; it is important that we have a current and accurate email address & mobile number as these will be used to set you up on SchoolMoney. The password will give you access to your SchoolMoney account where you can pay for any items we have requested from you.

To log into SchoolMoney, visit the website www.eduspot.co.uk and click on the sign in button in the top right-hand corner. In the drop-down menu, select the SchoolMoney Parent Login option and this will send you through to a page where you need to enter your mobile number, email address, the password we have sent to you, and your child's first name.   You will be able to access all payment information for all of your children who attend Blanford Mere Nursery & Primary School through the one SchoolMoney account. 

Initially, we will register one parent/carer only (this will be the number 1 contact on our school management system).  If you would like to add an additional adult, then please complete the online form on the school website entitled 'School Money - Additional Adult' or click the link below:

If for any reason you are struggling to log in, it may be because you have not provided us with the correct contact details. Please let us know immediately if either your mobile number or email address changes.

We appreciate your cooperation in the early stages of rolling this system out to you.  We intend to roll this out gradually, starting with Nursery Wraparound payments after half term.  We will gradually add in payments for Breakfast and After School Club, as well as extra-curricular clubs.  Eventually you will be able to buy uniform and pay for all school activities via this system.

Thank you for your patience while we introduce this new system.

Kind regards,

Mrs Miller and Miss Stanton
