You have done right in T6 setting the main teacher. I assume you have then sent the T6 file across with todays date? You will also have to re create the marksheet in SIMS

Sylvr3 how does your new intake show at the till? Are they showing in Y6 or something else? What MIS Link do you use? Update - Our issue has been resolved, it turns out there was a duff service on the server not pushing data across and one on the catering managers system that needed restarting. The extract process worked from our MIS but it was the pushing of the "MISExport.csv" that wasn't happening, however the fact that i had admitted the students with a Sept start date didnt stop them coming across, they are now in ID Store (Cunninghams), payments are syncing with ParentPay. They have however come across into the staff area of the software under group "0STF", the cunninghams helpdesk said this was fine and on our first day back in september the new extract will place then in Year 7 Mark

And your students who were "accepted" came through no issues? I will check with our IT department. I am in email conversation with cunninghams at the moment but they saying

Would any of you be able to tell me what you have set in your admission date for your new Y7 intake in Routines>>Admissions>>Admission Groups (Browse) then select your 2016/17 intake

Mark argument is that even when they were marked as "Accepted" it still didnt pull through

Cunninghams arre telling me they need to be in the system as "Accepted", "Offered" or "Applied" they were like that for weeks and nothing came through!

Then there is obviously an issue with our data transfer then. The catering lady is saying they need to say "Year 6" but to me its irrelevant, they are all admitted with a future date. Did you have to modify the exporter settings to achieve this? Or any special button in SIMS?

Hi Currently i have 240 new year 7 students admitted to SIMS with a start date of 06/09/2016 however they are coming for a 2 day visit on 11th/12th July and would like to use our catering. The said students are not showing on the Cunninghams system, am i missing a trick in SIMS or is there something wrong with the data transfer? Thanks Mark

^^ Agree 100% with that! My gripe with the DFE comes when trying to marry up the GCSE APS they use as a starting point for the L3VA (6th form) and the data checking results csv file for the GCSE results from the summer. You would think APS is straightforward but i have yet to get a match!

^^ This may be entirely hearsay but I have been told they round the fine points differently to DFE

^^ Ours came in the post this afternoon, but there is nothing on the EFA site. Checked it and the numbers match to what we were expecting

I will keep an eye out for our EFA funding thingy. I had noticed in the census bumf that if a student didnt get at least a C in Maths & English Language OR Literature then to recieve the funding they needed to be on a timetabled course to achieve that goal. To do this i set up a GCSE Resit Maths & GCSE Resit English qual in Course Manager, used the correct QAN and attached the teaching group to it.....time will tell if that was right M

I think im right in thinking if you go to Focus>>Assessment>>Template and open the template up. Just below the notes on the template you can choose a group filter, i choose Year 10, you can also add below hat a course link When you add a course marksheet or whole year marksheet they will be limited to those conditions Mark

+1 for class charts our teaching staff and pastoral staff love it

I used their ULN on the Learner Record service, i only had about 30 so i just looked them up. It is their best English between their Literature & Language Those that still havent achieved a C i also added them to a resit group in SIMS Course Manager so it appeared as a learning aim so we will get funding M
