PARENTPAY
The school is moving toward a cashless system and ParentPay will become our only method of payment for dinners, trips and events and the only way of reserving places at our free events such as After-school clubs.
Go to https://www.parentpay.com/ click login and enter the username and password the school provided. You will be prompted to change these when you set up your account. You will require an email address to activate your account. You can add multiple children to the same ParentPay account using the add a child button on your home page.
If you require a copy of your username and password please see the school office.
Finding the right time to talk
Talking PANTS is as simple as teaching your child how to cross the road. You know your child better than anyone. And you'll know when they're ready and how much detail to go into. Some parents found these moments helped them start the conversation:
- bathtime, applying cream or when getting your child dressed
- car journeys
- going swimming and saying that what's covered by swimwear is private
- during a TV show that features a sensitive storyline
- singling along to our PANTS song with Pantosaurus.

STAYING SAFE ONLINE - INFORMATION FOR PARENTS AND CARERS
The LSCB has carried out an online consultation with a sample of parents and carers across Cheshire East to find out more about keeping their children safe online. Many parents who completed the survey (88%) said they wanted to be better informed about e-safety. Of these 91% said there preferred information source was via their child's school.
At Underwood West we are keen to engage with parents and carers on this agenda.
The NSPCC have teamed up with O2 have designed a free App for your mobiles called Netaware. It is a simple guide to the most popular social networks apps and games. You can learn about safety guidelines and privacy settings for Face book, Instagram, Snap Chat and more.
