If you wish to receive push notifications for your School Gateway app, you must ensure that push notifications are manually turned on for this app within your phone settings. Every device will have other settings that can affect push notifications (for example, battery optimisation, which prevents some devices from receiving push notifications when the battery is below a certain percentage).
Please also ensure that you are running on the latest version of the app, which can be confirmed in the Play Store or App Store. If you are still not receiving notifications and have followed the guidance below, you would need to refer to the help guide for your specific device and/or contact your device manufacturer:
