School Census – Summer 2025 – From Sims to Bromcom
DfE School Census Date: Thurs 15th May 2025 Return Date: Tues 20th May 2025
We are aware that you may have migrated over from Sims to Bromcom and so you might benefit from some extra help/resources in terms of producing your upcoming summer census.
As always, we are here to help and have been carrying out our own test runs on a version of Bromcom in order to have some knowledge of where some queries may be and how we can help you to resolve them. If we are not able to help you resolve issues then you should be able to contact Scomis for more support.
