Arbor
Over the summer we have made some big changes to the way we store and use data in the workplace and have adopted a new Management Information System (MIS) called Arbor. This replaces our previous Sims MIS.
Adopting Arbor will allow us to communicate with you more efficiently and bring all core school data into one system. It is secure and user-friendly.
For parents there is a Parent Portal and/or a Parent App – this will allow you to see key elements of your child’s information such as attendance, behaviour & rewards as well as assessment and homework information. This replaces the classcharts platform we used previously and which we no longer subscribe to.
We are now getting started with Arbor and invite all our parents & guardians to familiarise themselves using the link below before we switch on the Parent Portal on Monday 12 September.
Getting started – Log into the Parent Portal and the Arbor App
Arbor also offers access to many training resources which are completely free for you to make the most of! These can all be found here.
We will send further communication on the parental app and how to register on Monday 12 September – please look out for this information and register your child when prompted.
If you have any queries, please contact Mr Carter via arbor@lynngroveacademy.org.uk
