Set up your whole season in minutes.

No spreadsheets flying around.

The whole season lives in one place, from sign-up to register.

No queue at the office door.

No parents asking why their child did not get a place.

Football ran late. The bus didn't wait.

Children leave at 15:00, 16:00 or 17:00 depending on their activity. Without one system, the bus waits for a child who is at football, or leaves without one who isn't.

Together School is the only provider with a fully integrated After School Activities module.

The bus waits for a child who's at a club.

When the driver starts the run, children booked into a clashing club already show as absent, so the bus leaves on time. If one turns up, the driver boards them with one tap.

Then they need the late bus.

The same children are on the late bus list automatically.

Who actually turned up?

The coordinator takes the register on their phone, and the office sees it live. A missing child is flagged at once.

Where does each child go at 16:30?

When the session ends, the app shows each child's next step: late bus, childcare, another club or a parent.

The bus page: Willow is at football, so she shows as absent and the bus leaves on time.

When the club ends, each child's next step: parent pickup, bus, childcare, another activity or back to class.

One question, every selection method

How do children get a place? You decide, per activity.

Every school runs activities differently. Some clubs take everyone. Sports teams hold try-outs. Popular clubs need a fair draw. Together School handles all of it with one plain question when you create an activity.

⚖

Fair allocation

Parents rank their choices, every child gets their highest available choice, and oversubscribed places are decided by a fair draw.

⚡

First come, first served

Places are taken instantly, with a live counter of places remaining.

✔

Everyone gets in

No cap. Every child who signs up has a place.

★

Staff choose

Children express interest, staff pick the roster. Built for try-outs, auditions and invitation teams.

Priority, turns and year groups, built in.

Add priority for siblings and continuing pupils, or turn on give others a turn so last season's attendees go to the back of the draw. Year group limits are there when you need them.

3

Open sign-up

Parents are notified automatically.

Your activity list already lives in a spreadsheet somewhere.

Paste it in and the system reads it, tidies it up, and only asks you about the rows it genuinely cannot work out.

Simple for parents

The whole week on their phone. One submit.

Parents browse the week on their phone, rank up to three choices per day, and change their minds any time until sign-up closes. For first come, first served clubs they sign up on the spot. For teams they tap I'm interested.

When allocation runs, parents get a notification and see their child's week at a glance.

One summary screen

Fair, and provably fair

One button allocates the whole season.

Every child gets their highest available choice, draws are random where places run out, and the result is fully auditable.

⚖

Fully auditable

Every result can be traced, so you never have to reconstruct what happened.

✉

An answer ready for every parent

When a parent asks why their child did not get a place, click the child's name and get a plain-English explanation of exactly what happened, ready to paste into your reply.
