SIMS Parent

Introduction to the SIMS Parent App

The SIMS Parent App is a user-friendly tool that helps parents stay connected with their child's school. It provides easy access to important information, such as attendance, behaviour, and academic progress, all from a smartphone or computer. The app keeps parents informed about school activities and allows them to update contact details. By facilitating communication between parents and schools, the SIMS Parent App encourages active involvement in a child's education, leading to better outcomes for students.

SIMS Parent allows you to receive school information directly on your smartphone or computer, including:

  • Attendance
  • Timetable
  • Behaviour and Achievement
  • Reports
  • Events and Activities
  • School Calendar

You can also update contact details to ensure we have accurate information. If you have multiple children at the school, you can access their information using the same login credentials.

Please see the information below for registration and log in instructions. 

Getting Started with the SIMS Parent App

  • Activation Email: When your child joins Stocksbridge High School you will receive an activation email from noreply@sims.co.uk. Click the link to activate your account and set up a SIMS ID with your email and password. This activation e-mail will come from a 'noreply@sims.co.uk' e-mail address and will be sent to the e-mail address that we have on our school database for you. 
  • Verification Email: After account creation, check your email (including junk/spam folders) for a verification email. Click the link to verify your account.
  • Activate Your Account:• Enter your e-mail address (this MUST be the same e-mail address that is stored on our database)
  • Enter your activation code (if it isn't already pre-filled)
  • Create a password (after clicking the 'next' button)
  • Provide the requested secret information (this is usually a date of birth of a student that you have in school in the format of dd/mm/yyyy
  • Login: Use your registered email and new password to log in at SIMS Parent.
  • Once registered, use the SIMS ID button for future logins.

If you have more than one child at school, you will have access to information for all your children, from the same app. You will use the same login (e-mail address and password) to access this information.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • Check junk/spam folders if you do not receive activation or verification emails.
  • Avoid using "automatically fill in forms" on devices to prevent password issues.
  • Passwords must be updated every 90 days; manually enter your credentials each time to avoid problems.
  • Choose a new password that has not been used previously to meet security requirements.
