Whether your school is just about to start using Arbor for the first time, or you’ve been using Arbor for years but need a refresh, here are four key things to remember as we get ready for the next academic year. 

Our Help Centre 

Arbor is consistently rated as one of the most intuitive school management information systems in the UK, but if you find yourself stuck, we have a big support team on hand to help. 

One of the other ways you can find support is our Help Centre. Packed with thousands of articles, how-tos, top tips and walk-through videos, our Help Centre is full of searchable content, to make sure all the answers to your Arbor related questions are at your fingertips, instantly. 

Feedback and roadmap

Those who work in schools know how an MIS can help them best – that’s why we actively encourage all of our users to give feedback on how we can improve. We update Arbor fortnightly, listening closely to what you tell us. 

Roadmap

Our roadmap is public, so you can upvote and comment on features that you want our team to work on

Feedback forums

We host regular feedback forums so that you can work directly with our Product and Engineering teams to implement features that will help you in your role

Webinars

Just like at ArborFest, we present our roadmap so that schools have transparency over what we’re working on

Account Managers

Our Account Managers regularly liaise with our Product Team, sharing suggestions from their termly reviews and calls with schools and trusts

Our community

Over 5,000 schools and trusts use Arbor MIS! It’s important to us that Arbor users get the most out of this community and can learn from others in the network. Make sure to join us at events like ArborFest, where we bring our community together for a day packed with roundtables, panel discussions, thought leadership tasks and networking opportunities. 

We also have a big community on LinkedIn and Twitter/X – follow us on here to keep up with the latest news, events and top tips. 

Training

It’s always daunting when starting to use a new system, but don’t worry! If you feel like you need a little more help with a particular area of Arbor, we have a Training Hub filled with courses and a Customer Education Team with a 99% satisfaction rating.
