Deselect any student you do not wish to contact because of court orders, unusual arrangements, etc. Select the type of person you are going to contact. There are four options:

  • Students - contact the students themselves. Emails will be sent to their 'work' email addresses (as set in SIMS)
  • Priority 1 contact with Parental responsibility - contact people who are both priority 1 and have parental responsibility
  • Priority 1 contact regardless of Parental responsibility - contact people who are priority 1
  • All contacts with Parental responsibility - contact people who have responsibility

(a)There is an alternate set of options depending upon preferences

Stage 2

This tab will check that, for each student, there is a person in SIMS who can be contacted based on the options selected on the previous tab.

Students who do not have a valid contact will be highlighted in red. If there are no named contacts to the right of the student's name then there are no contacts who have a suitable priority level and/or parental responsibility in SIMS. Alternatively if a named contact does appear, then they do have suitable priority and parental responsibility, but do not have a valid method for contact e.g. they have no email address.
