Assistance with the SIMS Learning Gateway

Posted on: 11/04/2018

Dear Parent/Carer

In our previous letter we wrote to advise you about our new school management system (SIMS Learning Gateway) which allows you to log-in directly and keep your personal data up to date. This is a reminder that you should have logged in by now to check your personal details, and to check you are able to log in to receive your child’s reports.

I have attached an "Accessing SIMS Learning Gateway" help sheet that will guide you through the process of logging in to view your child's report. The Charles Dickens School will also be holding two informal drop in sessions to give hands on support to any parent/carer who is currently having difficulties logging in, or accessing their child's reports. These sessions will be Tuesday 17 April 9am till 11am, and Wednesday 18 April 2pm to 3:30pm

Please do not reply to this message. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at dataenquiries@cds.kent.sch.uk.

Yours Faithfully

Mr R Henderson
Assistant Headteacher
