-----

With SIMS now only giving schools the option to renew their contracts for 3 years, many schools have told us they’re trying to work out whether they can switch MIS by Easter 2022.

The good news is there’s still plenty of time to choose a new MIS. We’ve created a dedicated “fast track” programme to help you make a decision quickly and confidently.

1. See Arbor quickly and easily

We’ve created a set of two, streamlined demos to show you Arbor. These demos will be rolling, so you can join them anytime, invite your team, and build a thorough understanding of our systems in a condensed time frame. You’ll speak to your local Partnership Manager throughout to answer any questions you have.

2. Move to Arbor without double-paying

We’re offering a special Buy Now, Pay Later offer to schools using the programme - meaning you can switch to Arbor in Spring and not start paying until your SIMS license ends in April 2022. You'll need to sign by 17th December 2021 if your special school uses Exams and Timetabling, or by 1st February 2022 if you don't, to move by Easter.

Please note that Terms and Conditions apply to this programme.
