Thank you. That introduces another external system that we use, MINT class. Primarily for the SEN / SEND aspects of students from SIMS but also a secondary benefit was that it too also offers a seating plan.

Thank you for this. I have seen several references to it elsewhere on here but not heard of it myself / seen it around / known anybody who has used it. Due to the various systems already in place at the minute we wouldn't be looking at wholescale changes....but it could be something of interest for the future.

Good morning, thank you for your reply. At the moment we use SIMS InTouch for communicating with parents and staff by text message. I think this was the first / one of the only systems around when we were first looking for a system five years or so ago. Our main parental tool for communicating reports, assessments, student timetable information, behaviour, achievements and much more is TASC Insight which we've had for four years now We have got the Room Booking System to link in to SIMS for checking room availability and booking rooms We have recently signed up for the same companies parents evening booking system which seems to be going well and we are now exploring alternatives to SIMS Activities seen as TASC Insight does everything for us that the SIMS Parent app would have done. We have also found SIMS own add-ons to be less user friendly whilst also being on the expensive side to initially purchase and then maintain. Thank you

Hi all, we have been using SIMS Activities for many years now to register students in extra curricular clubs but since its merger with SIMS Parent app we already have other systems in place that perform the same role as SIMS Parent does so we are now looking for alternatives to SIMS Activities. Any advise please? Thank you in advance.
