Sims Parent App Lite

Hi all,

 

Anyone use this? Is it any good?

 

We dont need to host anything our end or a web portal do we? It's all done by Capita?

 

Thankyou.

It is very straightforward. You need to have SIMS Services Manager (SSM) installed on your SIMS server, and the SIMS Online Services package installed in SSM. You need an activation code from ESS SIMS to allow you to setup onboard the app and set up administrators. Administration is done via https://admin.sims.co.uk/

 

As part of the onboarding you get a key and code to enter into SIMS Online Services in SSM.

 

Administrators can then access the admin portal to send email invites to parents/staff/students to register for the app. Obviously, they will need email addresses stored in SIMS.

 

Parent App Lite allows parents to view and update their details, and the details of their child via the Parent App or https://sims-parent.co.uk. The change requests come into SIMS and then admins can decide whether or not to accept the changes.

 

Hope that helps.
