Bookings can be made individually or in bulk, you will be given various payment options upon completing your booking process. If you have made bookings for the entire school year then you can select partial payment. Partial payment will allow you to pay monthly installments, please note that payment is expected in advance so please ensure you pay for the following month before the 28th - iPAL will email you reminders so please mark no-reply@schoolipal.co.uk as safe.

We have a cancellation period of 1 day; you are unable to cancel and be refunded for any bookings coming up within 1 day. Should you no longer require your child to attend during this period then please log in, click notes and put that your child is not attending for that session.

We advise all our users to watch the walk through video linked in this page and use the video guides should you need support on using iPAL for the first time.

Parents/Carers are responsible for ensuring their children's account is up to date e.g. changing medcial/collection information by clicking edit child on your account.
All bookings must be made via iPAL to ensure that a register is maintained, this also assists in the management of numbers attending and staff provision.
Bookings for Breakfast Club can be made at any time before dropping your children off.
Afterschool Club bookings must be made before 2:40pm on the day and Holiday Club bookings can be made at any time. Bookings are subject to availability.
Parents/Carers hold responsibility for managing their bookings. If bookings are not made and the provision is full, we cannot accept further children. This is to ensure our ratios are met and we run safely.
Please double check your confirmation email after booking, because if you have selected the incorrect date and your child does not appear on our register we will not collect them. If a phone call home is required by school reception and you need your child to come to club,
this might not be possible as we could be at capacity. You can check your bookings via your invoice or by clicking into your calendar on iPAL.
Dragon Club are not responsible for incorrect bookings being made.

Standard Bookings:
Bookings and payments should be made on iPAL under "Make Bookings". Using the tile
menu, please select either Breakfast, Afterschool or Holiday Club.

We accept all childcare vouchers.

We also accept the Goverment Childcare Payment Scheme. - You'll submit these in the checkout section of our booking system as vouchers.

Add voucher payments to your wallet so that you can then use your wallet for ad-hoc bookings OR make a booking and select to pay by Childcare Voucher. If you pay by Childcare Vouchers you should book your place as above, select payment option ‘Alternative Payment’, and submit your voucher details. Voucher payments are transferred directly to our bank account, around 3-5 days after you have requested the voucher. Government and Student Finance Schemes should be made the same as above.
