Parent Communications App
In the past parents and carers have been using the SIMS Parent App to receive communications from school. Towards the end of the previous academic year we made the decision to move to a more versatile application called Weduc, and we have been trialling it’s potential since the beginning of term.
Many parents and carers have been successfully using Weduc, however, due to several technical issues we have temporarily disabled the service until necessary maintenance and improvements take place. We hope to restore full functionality during October half term, after which we will contact all parents/carers again and formally introduce the benefits of this application.
