Tracking pupil progress

You can’t improve what you can’t measure. You can’t measure what you can’t see. And to successfully monitor how pupils are progressing, you need to see everything.

SIMS provides better progress tracking that ensures more meaningful learning for pupils, more effective teaching and improved rates of pupil progress and attainment. With SIMS you can share that information with teachers and parents to keep everyone relevant to the individual’s progress in the loop, driving relevant and targeted continuous improvement.

Share the parts of the curriculum pupils have covered between teaching staff, what they are currently addressing and what their next challenges will be. Share pupil assessments and homework with parents to help them become more engaged in their child’s learning.

SIMS gives you the ‘big picture’ view you need to make critical, timely and measurable improvements across your school. Imagine a flight deck of information for your school, on your desktop, laptop or PDA. A display showing real-time performance against your priorities - and tools to make real-time decisions on the issues that matter.
