Parent Pay

Parent Pay is now live and the council requires that parents/carers use Parent Pay to pay for items such as lunches and trips. You will have received instructions on how to do this. Please contact the school office if you have any problems as the school is no longer be able to accept cash payments.

School Lunches

School lunches are free for children in P1-5 and for children in P6-7 who have successfully applied for free school meals. If your child is in P6 or P7 and is not entitled to free school meals the options are to provide a packed lunch or to pay for a school dinner via Parent Pay. This will avoid building up debt which will require to be repaid to Glasgow City Council. The school cannot accept cash payments.
