SIMS Parent App

Easy access to important school information

We have a convenient way to share information with you about your child’s life at Chiltern Academy.

The information that you receive through the app will help you to stay up-to-date with your child's student life as well as support your child's development and progress.

You can access our parent app and website (link to www.sims-parent.co.uk). Invitations will be sent out to parents via email and once you have activated your personalised code you will be able to access the system from a smartphone, tablet or PC – anytime, anywhere.

What you will find in the SIMS App:

• Important information on your child such as attendance data, timetable and achievement/behaviour data
• Your child's homework and extracurricular activities
• Data collection area where you can update or change with ease
• Immediate access to school term dates and calendar events
• Your child’s reports

If you have more than one child at Chiltern you will be able to access the information for all your children from the same log on.

FAQ:

Can I use a shared email address?

No. Each SIMS Parent App login is individual and each parent will need a separate login via a separate email account.

What do I need to do if my first registration didn’t work?

Please send your name and email address to admin@chiltern-academy.co.uk we will resend your invitation email enabling you to re-register.

There are so many options at registration, can I use SIMS ID?

No. Unfortunately, the SIMS ID option is not available for parents/carers because it is mainly for member of Staff and Students. Parents/carers should register with the remaining options for example with a Facebook, Google, Microsoft or Twitter account.
