How To Teach Griddle

A fixed system gives you a set list of features, take it or leave it. It can work if the bundle happens to match how your school runs. The trouble is that schools are not identical. A large multi-academy trust, a small independent and a faith primary all record different things and answer to different bodies. A one-size product asks each of them to bend to the software, and usually one of them ends up keeping a spreadsheet on the side to cover the gap.
Timing is the second decision, and in a school the calendar decides it for you. The gaps between terms, and the summer break in particular, give you a window to move without a live term relying on the switch. Avoid cutting over in the middle of admissions or reporting season. Agree a clear go-live date, keep the old system readable for a defined period afterwards, and confirm you can still retrieve historic records if you need them. Never delete the old data until the new system is verified and signed off.
Certification is the second, more concrete checkpoint. ISO 27001 is the recognised international standard for information security management, and a vendor holding current certification has had its security controls independently audited against that standard rather than simply asserting they are secure. For any part of a system handling payment data, such as fee billing or canteen top-ups, PCI-DSS Level 1 compliance is the equivalent standard specifically for payment card handling, and it is worth asking whether that certification covers the billing module directly rather than being described only at the level of the parent company.

Breadth matters too, not just flexibility. A range that stretches past forty modules means the awkward, school-specific needs are more likely to be covered natively rather than bolted on from a third-party tool. Every extra integration is another login, another support line and another thing to break, so a wide native range genuinely reduces day-to-day friction for the office.
Parent experience sits over both. Independent school families are, in effect, paying customers, and they judge the school partly on how easy it is to pay, book and stay informed. One app that covers notices, consent, billing and catering feels professional. Three logins for three tasks does not. Look for a single parent-facing account that carries all of it.
