Who We Are
SchoolGrid is a multi-award-winning catering management and parent engagement system for schools across the UK. We are a fast-growing, family-run business with a strong focus on quality, customer experience, and social value.
Alongside SchoolGrid, we also operate SiteGrid, a newer and growing brand focused on compliance and site management. Both products are live.
SchoolGrid is well established in the market, while SiteGrid is in an earlier growth phase and requires focused brand building and expansion.
We are now looking to strengthen both brands, drive adoption and retention, and accelerate awareness and growth for SiteGrid in particular.
