SIMS Parent For Parents FAQ
I can’t remember my password. What should I do?
Visit the website of your account provider (i.e. Microsoft, Google, Facebook or Twitter) and follow their instructions for resetting your password.
Do I need to register separately for each of my children attending this school?
No. When you sign in to SIMS Parent, events and information for all of your children attending this school will be displayed in one place.
If I have children who attend different schools, and if each of the schools is using SIMS Parent, can I view all of my children in one place?
It is now possible for parents to use the same login details to register with multiple SIMS Parent schools. This will allow users to change school once inside SIMS Parent from a drop-down menu located on the school name in the top right-hand corner of the page.
Why can’t I open the Data Collection Sheet for my child?
If the Data Collection Sheet is not visible from SIMS Parent for your child, you may not meet the criteria required for submitting changes to your child’s account. (The parent might have a court order etc..)
If you can see the Data Collection Sheet but it is locked (a padlock icon will be displayed), the Data Collection Sheet has been previously submitted and is waiting for a school administrator to authorise and apply the changes. Once the changes have been applied, the Data Collection Sheet will become available again.
