About Pioneer Village School
Pioneer Village School Armadale is a private school situated in a picturesque and protected heritage setting at the foothills of the Darling Ranges in Armadale, Western Australia. Catering for students from 3yr old kindergarten to year six, the school is proud of its professional staff, high standard of care and the individualised attention provided to its students to achieve academic excellence.
Working with PaySmart has profoundly improved the management of our tuition fee payments to the school.
Challenges faced
The School’s administration team faced incredibly busy periods during each year that coincided with fee invoicing. This resource-intensive work took the staff away from other important tasks. Plus, as the payment system was quite fluid, and without firm timeframes around payment deadlines, cash flow was unpredictable.
Pioneer Village School found PaySmart to be a very effective way of increasing efficiency and improving cash flow.
Client Perspective: PaySmart Solution
We were really looking to introduce more structure into our school fee payment system to make it easier for our families and staff-the direct debit option with PaySmart seemed like an ideal solution. Our PaySmart Business Development Manager guided us through the setup of the system and provided all the resources and support we needed to make the transition fast and painless. At first, we were a little concerned that parents would push back on a new payment system, but in reality, that wasn’t the case at all.
