Getting started
A calm move, one step at a time
You do not have to move everything at once. Most schools start with registers and messages, then add the rest term by term.
- 1
Create your school
Sign up, name your school, and add your logo and colours. Starter is free, so there is nothing to pay yet.
- 2
Set up the year
Add your terms, classes and rooms. If you run a timetable, build it now and Montessa will flag any clashes.
- 3
Bring in students and families
Add students and link their guardians and siblings. Health notes, consents and approved collectors can follow.
- 4
Invite your staff
Invite teachers, office and finance staff. Each role lands on its own home, with only what it needs.
- 5
Invite families
Send each family an invitation. They join on the web or the Montessa app and see their own children straight away.
- 6
Switch on the rest
Turn on billing, transport, homework, portfolios or your school website when your team is ready, not all on day one.

Bring every part of your school together.
Start free for up to 30 students. No card, no contract, no set-up fee.
