What's New in School Spider Parents

6.0.18

July 7, 2026

This update fixes an issue where the update service is taking users to the wrong app to update.

User reviews

Not user friendly

Update failure and redirect me to downland a scam app

Ok but needs improvement

Overall the app is very useful and quick to use. However, when reviewing the weeks bookings (trips, after school clubs, movie nights) not all bookings come up or it comes up blank. If you make a booking in advance the only way you can double check after the fact is by looking in your emails for the confirmation as there’s no set place in the app to see. It would be so much easier to just be able to completely and reliably click on “my bookings” and see per day what has been booked.

Absolutely terrible

Why any school would chose to use this app/service is beyond me! Do they not read reviews beforehand? It is the WORST app I’ve ever encountered in my life. It never works, the notifications don’t work, it logs you out almost daily and you can’t log back in again because the ‘credentials do not exist’. Then to get that rectified you have to spend time trying to call the school office, explain what’s happened, then they have to do something there end and you have to wait for an email before you can log in again through a link they send you. Honestly it’s the biggest waste of time ever. I am currently locked out again, whilst the debt is going up for school activities because I can’t actually pay for them! Many of us parents nearly missed a trip the other day because there wasn’t a single notification about it and to find out any information you had to click through every option on the app. So many parents are having the same problem. Schools need to stay clear, it’s a waste of time and I imagine very costly for a service they simply can’t deliver. Even if it worked as it should do, it isn’t user friendly and certainly not something grandparents or older caregivers would manage easily.

Awful

Kicks us out every few days and then it won’t let us update or log in. Completely not fit for purpose.

Can’t now login

Used to work. Now asks for an email that isn’t accepted
