We’re proud to officially announce the launch of Pupil Perks — a free, school-branded platform designed to support families with money-saving offers on everyday essentials. Launching in September, Pupil Perks is built for the education sector and backed by a simple mission: to ease financial pressure on parents and carers while helping schools tackle key challenges linked to deprivation.

Pupil Perks partners directly with primary and secondary schools across the UK to offer parents and carers access to carefully selected discounts and offers from trusted, family-friendly brands. From school uniforms and food to tech and travel, every perk is designed to support household budgets and improve life beyond the school gates.

This isn’t just another discount site. It’s a purpose-led platform created to deliver real value, with measurable benefits for school communities — including improved attendance, increased engagement, and stronger recruitment and retention.

With the cost of living continuing to rise, more families are feeling the strain — and schools are seeing the knock-on effects, from unauthorised absences to reduced engagement and widening gaps in outcomes. Families of children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) are often hit hardest, facing additional costs, limited access to work due to caring responsibilities, and fewer support options.

Pupil Perks is our response: a practical, accessible tool that helps schools support all families — including those navigating additional challenges — without adding to their workload or budgets.

There’s no cost, no admin, and no catch. Just support where it’s needed most.

Unlike generic discount platforms, Pupil Perks is built exclusively for the education sector — with the needs of schools, families, and pupils at its core. Every aspect of our platform has been designed to align with the real challenges schools face, from tackling financial hardship to improving attendance, parental engagement, and inclusion.

We’re not just offering savings — we’re offering strategic support that complements your existing efforts. Our platform helps schools:

• Contribute to wider Ofsted goals by addressing barriers to learning and improving pupil outcomes.
• Support families facing disadvantage — including those with children who have SEND or are in receipt of pupil premium.
• Build stronger links between home and school, improving trust, engagement and retention.

This isn’t a bolt-on. It’s a purpose-driven platform, custom-made to fit seamlessly within the education ecosystem — with no cost, no admin, and maximum impact.

We’re excited to begin rolling out Pupil Perks from September 2025 and are already partnering with schools and brands across the UK. Whether you’re a headteacher, a parent, or a business looking to support the education sector, now’s the time to get involved.

Together, we can reduce the impact of deprivation, promote inclusion, and help every child get the best start in life.
