Please click here to download this year’’s SIMS Examinations Organiser Results Day Survival Kit.

The purpose of this document is to ensure that Examinations Officers have at their fingertips the information they will need to make results download days (13th and 20th August 2008) as painless as possible.

This document refers to the August 2008 Main Release of SIMS which was made available by Capita on the evening of Friday 8th August 2008.

It should be noted, however, that Capita have informed Bolton Council that there are no known issues with the current version (6.64) that might compromise the successful download and import of GCE and GCSE results.

If schools wish to make full use of the PI functionality in Examinations Organiser, and have candidates entered for the affected exams, the August 2008 Main Release will need to be installed.

Full details can be found in the Survival Kit document which includes information on a task relating to OCR Nationals that must be performed prior to installing the August 2008 Main Release.
