WHAT IS ALADDIN?
Dublin Steiner School uses Aladdin Schools Connect, an admin and payments app which is used by more than 2500 primary schools across Ireland, as a way to securely manage school fees, trip payments, communication and other administrative tasks.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Each family will have an account which can be accessed via secure login from your internet browser or Aladdin Connect App. This should streamline each family's management of monthly fees in addition to extra fees needed for the after-school programme, field trips, school supplies, class photos etc.
IS IT SECURE?
Aladdin Schools uses state-of-the-art security to safeguard information entered by the school and data is stored and processed in strict compliance with Irish and European data protection laws.
HOW DO I SIGN UP?
When you join the system, you will receive a text/email message containing your registration link. There will be one link per parent. Please do not forward this text/email or share this link as this is a unique registration link for each parent for your child/children in this school.
For further assistance please view the help page here (pdf) to see the Parent Connect signup process.
Please note: If there are any personal concerns, or legal provisions in place regarding giving access to Connect to any parent/guardian of your child please contact the school in confidence to discuss or restrict access as required.
is it possible to PAY FEES MONTHLY, OR BY TERM?
Yes, of course - most families choose to pay their annual fees on an instalment basis across the year.
When you click on the ePayments icon on your Aladdin app homepage, you will see the total fees owing for the full year. The fees can be paid monthly or termly clicking 'change amount', which is shown just underneath the total fees owing. You can then enter your monthly or termly amount, and you will see the total owing reduce once each payment has been successfully made. Fees payments for each school year can be made to the 30th June of that year.
