Anyone here work in a school in Birmingham LEA area.?

[tosca925]

I need some advice on a planned move form Sims.net to CMIS. I know nearly all B'ham LEA schools use CMIS and have done for a couple of years.

I just want to pick some ones brains and experience.

I wont post question here until some one replies or i can do it via pm.

Can't help you much there. We went the other way - from CMIS to Sims.net :S

The last school I worked at was one of the 1st adoptors of CMIS. What a disaster it was! I'm sure it's better now (it would have to be), and I was sick and fed up of doing "upgrades" every 2 months! Part of the reason for taking this new job was to get away from CMIS, and all the other "experts" on CMIS left to get away as well!!!

well you know what expert means... break ti down

x is unknown in maths

spurt is a drip under presssure

so expert = unknown drip under pressure...

The way I see it is:

Ex: Is something that used to be,
Spurt: Small drip under pressure

So I used to be a small drip under pressure, now I'm just small & under pressure!!!

I'm at a Birmingham school.

My advice is to keep in contact with EdIt (or what ever they are called now) and also join the ICT Managers and Technicians BGFL message board.
