Hosted schools
Fileset 2101 has been applied to all hosted schools alongside Consolidated Workstation Patch 2
ESS have advised that fileset 2102 is not necessary for ESS schools to authorise their census returns. This was produced for Welsh schools and also to fix an issue which would not affect SIMS schools. If you would like this fileset download as per instructions below.
