New Customer FAQ
Every day at the Customer Contact Centre we’re lucky enough to receive hundreds of booking enquires. These enquires are often a mix of both returning customers and new customers.
Sometimes we find that new customers don’t always know what to expect when they first get in touch with us. So we thought we’d put together a common selection of frequently asked questions to help give you an insight into a typical conversation with us.
How Do I Get in Contact With You? There are three main ways to get in contact with us and start your booking process.
You can get in contact with us directly by Phone on 0345 222 2323 or you can Email us on enquiries@schoolsplus.co.uk.
Alternatively you can fill in a booking enquiry forum which you can find by following the link after clicking Enquires on our website. We will then email you back after reading through the enquiry.
