Arbor Parent App

Arbor is the online system we use that allows you to monitor your child’s attendance, behaviour and progress. It is also what we use for online payments, for example for school dinners. You can also log an absence on Arbor.

What is the Arbor App?

The Arbor App is the mobile version of the Parent Portal (see below). You can use it on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets.

Please go to your device’s app store to download the app.

What is the Parent Portal?

The Parent Portal is the version of Arbor you can use on a laptop or computer.

Logging in for the first time

We will send you a welcome email. This will have your login details and a link that will take you to the browser version of the Parent Portal where you need to set up a password.

You won’t be able to do this through the app, as the links in the reset password emails only work with a browser. You can reset your password using a computer, or using a mobile browser on your phone or tablet.

Click the link, then click ‘Forgot your password?’ Add in your email address then click ‘Reset password’.

If you have a child at more than one Arbor school, you will be asked to select the appropriate school.

You’ll then receive another email. Click the link in this email to set your password.

Logging in to the Parent Portal

Now your password has been set up, you can log into the Parent Portal by going to login.arbor.sc and inputting your email address and password.

If you have a child at more than one Arbor school, you will be asked to select the appropriate school. Enter your password, then click ‘Log in’.

Logging in to the app

Now your password has been set up, you can log into the Arbor App. Add in your email address.

Select the school to log into. Enter your password, then click ‘Log in’.

If you have more than one child at the school, please select the child you wish to view. Don’t worry, you can select another child once you are logged in.
