MCAS (My Child At School) - Parent Information and Communication System
We are delighted to share with you that the process of transitioning to Bromcom as our new Management Information System (MIS) will complete on Friday 28th February at 3pm. We are joining other schools within Meridian Trust in adopting Bromcom as our single MIS provider. This transition marks a significant step forward in enhancing our communication channels with you, our parents and carers.

- Parent Portal Access:Use the Bromcom website or the My Child At School (MCAS) app (Apple or Android).
- Single Login:If you have children in multiple schools using Bromcom, view them in one place.
