We use options online for our own administration, students complete paper forms and I manually enter into options online. When the process is complete I transfer the data into sims.
We have never ventured down the route of student logins, I wanted to see how other schools managed to get on with it. Reading the latest feedback we will carry on as we are.
Just to add we use the Data Collection section of the Parent App and are very familiar with the login process for parents and the pros and cons of getting them to understand the login process.
