Marksheets are an additional module in Insight, meaning they are not included in the basic package. Please contact our sales team via sales@tascsoftware.co.uk for information about purchasing and pricing.
The marksheets module allows staff to access their SIMS marksheets via Insight. Since Insight is web-based, it is accessible from outside of school. This means the marksheets module can be a very efficient way of providing staff with the ability to enter grades from home.
