Check if you're supported by Arbor
If you are a parent, you can use these articles to help you or contact your school for more information. Please do not contact Arbor directly.
If you are a student, you can use these articles to help you or contact your school for more information. Please do not contact Arbor directly.
If you are a Partner supported school, you will need to speak directly with your support partner, as our phone, email and Webchat support is only available for Arbor supported schools. Partner supported schools will not have the Chat option within the MIS. Please do not contact Arbor directly.
How to contact us if you're supported by Arbor
If you can't find what you're looking for in our Help Centre, you can contact us by Web Chat, Email and Phone. Our support team is usually available to help on weekdays (Monday to Friday, 08:00-17:00), excluding public/bank holidays or certain dates outlined below.
Should you need to get in touch outside of our operating hours, please use the Contact Us form, and we'll be back in touch as soon as we can.
Webchat and Arby
In the bottom left of your screen:
- you can access Arby for walkthroughs and common FAQs: Using Arby
- click on the 'Help' icon in the Help Centre, or 'Chat' from within your Arbor site to have articles suggested to you.
If you can't find what you're looking for using webchat, you can then begin chatting with a member of our Support Team. Click here for more help, including FAQs on sending links and screenshots: Using Webchat
If you’re on Advanced Support, please instead book a call following your standard Advanced Support booked call process.
Submit an email ticket to our Support Team
Click Contact Us in the top right of our Help Centre, or the I'm still stuck! button at the bottom of an article. This will come through to our team as an email.
Select the relevant form (for example if you need to report a bug).
In the form, provide us with as much information as you can including relevant links or screenshots where possible. This will ensure we can investigate thoroughly for you without having to email back for more information which can delay a resolution. For example, if a staff member is having login issues, please provide their name.
You'll then get a notification that your question has been submitted, and you'll hear back from us soon. You can see how to track your requests here: How can I view my open requests with the Support Team?
