At ParentPay Group, we believe that when schools run well, students thrive. That’s why we’ve spent decades building the operating system that supports well‑run schools – a seamless layer of tools, insights, and support that makes school life simpler for teachers, leaders, caterers, parents, and students alike.
From cashless payments and parent engagement to catering management, library systems, and MIS platforms, we connect the everyday parts of education through simple, secure, and connected tools. What began as a way to make school payments easier has grown into Europe’s leading EdTech group – trusted by over 20,000 schools and 9 million users across the UK and Europe.
Every day, our platforms process millions of payments, messages, and data points, quietly working in the background so schools can shine out front. Together, we’re helping schools save time, cut costs, and create more time for learning.
ParentPay Group is more than a collection of brands. We are a group of people dedicated to supporting well‑run schools and giving time back to teachers, parents, caterers, admin staff – and most importantly, to students.
