How the app Works

Firstly, you will need to download the app from either the iTunes App Store , Google Play or Windows Store by clicking on the relevant buttons below or by loading up the app store on your phone and searching for ‘School News’.

Once you have located and downloaded the free app, launch the app and you will then be able to either click on the ‘Find my school’ button which uses the phones GPS to locate all the schools in the surrounding 20 miles, or you can type in Abbey Woods Academy and click on ‘Get my school’ button.

The school's postcode is: OX10 7LZ, although this is not always recognised, so use Abbey Woods Academy and you should see the school in the search window. Click on the school to view news & events.

You will then be able to click on the ‘News’ button to view all of the latest news items that have been added to the school and also all of the upcoming calendar events by clicking on the ‘Events’ button.

Clicking on ‘My Schools’ will display a list of schools that you view news and events for. Clicking on one of the schools will the display the school address, telephone number and email address which you can click on to either phone or email the school directly from the app.
