Tidy up time
Posted 12th January 2017
Although Census time allows schools to update a lot of information held in SIMS, the same old data issues often persist (contacts not showing correctly, no little houses, names in upper and lower cases to name but a few).
Our School Housekeeping service is designed to ensure that your pupil data is tidy and make it more efficient to use. This service is delivered for your school remotely via our SIMS Service Desk so no need to find a spare desk or computer for one of our team to work on either. All of our our SIMS Remote Services are designed so that our experienced team can carry out the processes for you; leaving you and your admin staff free to focus on other tasks.Other Services we can offer include:
