Arbor Access and Studying from Home

Introducing Arbor – Our New School Management System

We introduced Arbor in 2026 to replace SIMS, providing parents and carers with a modern, easy‑to‑use platform that keeps all key school information in one place.

Arbor is designed to provide a more streamlined and accessible experience for both students and families. Students can now access their Student Portal via a web browser or the Arbor Student App, available on mobile devices. Through the portal, students can:

• View their timetable and upcoming events
• Check attendance and behaviour points
• Access exam information (Statements of Entry, Timetables, Results)
• View report cards
• Track and submit homework assignments
• See marks and teacher feedback

All parent/guardian consultations will now be booked exclusively through Arbor, helping to streamline appointments and reduce paperwork.

Arbor is also our main platform for:

• School communications
• Online payments
• Updates and notifications
• Behaviour including detentions 
   

By bringing everything together in a single system, Arbor helps us communicate more effectively with families and ensures you always have up‑to‑date information at your fingertips.

We strongly encourage all parents and carers to make full use of Arbor as it is now our primary method of communication and information sharing.
