Online Payments

We use an online payment system, sQuid, that can be used to make all school payments such as school trips, breakfast club etc.

sQuid is really simple.  All you need to do to get started with sQuid is to create a sQuid account.  You will be sent, by the school office, a registration email, when your child is on roll at the school, with your own unique 16 digit sQuid registration number and 3 digit CVV security code.

1. Go to the sQuid web page squidcard.com/welcome

2. Select the 'Click here to create a sQuid account' link

3. Enter your details, create a password, choose a security question and answer

4. Click the 'register' button to complete your registration

5. Confirm your registration by clicking the link in your activation email

6. Complete the required additional personal details

7. Add your sQuid registration number, CVV security code and your child's name

Go to https://portal.squidcard.com/LoginPortal/ to log in to your sQuid account to check your balance, top up or update your personal details and preferences.

The sQuid App is free to download on iOS and Android devices and provides a quicker, more convenient way to access, manage and top up your online sQuid account.  To download the app, please search for the 'sQuidcard' in the relevant app store.
