Register your PTA and get access to your dashboard, where you'll be able to see which students have registered from your school.
Refer parents using your PTA's referral link. You can post this in your WhatsApp, Facebook or other communication channels.
Earn funding for each lesson a student takes on Sherpa. We pay your PTA £5 for every lesson a student completes, up to £100 per parent.
View your earnings through your dedicated PTA login on Sherpa. See how much your PTA has earned each month and which parents have registered.
