Meet the New RollCall Parent App

More than a new look. Built for the future of school transport.

We're excited to introduce the all-new RollCall Parent App.

While parents will immediately notice the fresh, modern design and simplified navigation, this release is much more than a visual refresh. Behind the scenes, we've rebuilt the Parent App on a new technology platform, creating a faster, smarter and more connected experience for schools, parents and drivers alike.

The result is an app that not only looks better, but performs better - delivering real-time information when it matters most.

What's new?

The new Parent App has been redesigned with busy families in mind, making everyday tasks quicker and more intuitive.

Parents will enjoy:

  • A fresh, modern interface that's easier to navigate.
  • Simplified menus to find information in fewer taps.
  • Improved performance for a faster, smoother experience.
  • Clearer transport information and notifications.
  • A more consistent and intuitive user experience.

The biggest changes are behind the scenes

While the new design is immediately visible, the real transformation is under the hood.

Our new backend technology enables information to flow instantly between the Driver App, Parent App and Admin Portal, ensuring everyone is working from the same live data.

Whether a driver scans a student onto the bus, a transport coordinator makes a last-minute route change, or a parent checks their child's journey, updates are reflected dynamically across the platform in real time.

That means:

  • Instant updates across the entire RollCall ecosystem.
  • More accurate tracking for parents.
  • Faster synchronisation between schools, drivers and families.
  • Improved reliability during the busiest morning and afternoon runs.

Built for what's next

This release represents an important milestone for RollCall.

By modernising the technology that powers the Parent App, we've created a future-ready platform that is faster, more scalable and better equipped to support the next generation of RollCall features.

As we continue to innovate, this new foundation allows us to deliver enhancements more quickly, improve system performance and provide an even better experience for your entire school community.

No action required

The updated Parent App will become available through the Apple App Store and Google Play Store as parents update their app. Existing accounts, bookings and transport information remain unchanged - only the experience has improved.

We can't wait for your school community to experience the new RollCall Parent App. It's more than a new look - it's a smarter, faster and more connected way to manage school transport.
