Registered schools and educational organisations can pay for online orders (including bookshop, memberships and workshop registrations) using a school Purchase Order number. In order to do so, you must be logged in to the DSF website and your account will need to be connected to a school or registered educational organisation.
Admin users from registered schools/educational organisation accounts are able to provide you with a login that is connected to your school. If you already have a login but this is not connected to your school then you will need to ask DSF to connect your exisiting account to your school's account and DSF will seek approval from your school's exisiting admin contact.
The first Purchase Order placed on behalf of a school can take up to 3 business days to be approved however subsequent orders will be approved automatically.
