Back To School - September 2024

Dear customer,

 It's that time of year again....

 Within this email you will be updated on key tasks to be completed in the MIS in the lead-up to the new academic year, along with important updates from the team.

 This week we start with the End of Year, Setting up Clubs & Trips, Exams Import and Results Day processes and September Training & Support.

September Support

By now you should be nearing the completion of your End of Year (EOY) process.

We are pleased to confirm that as of today that the vast majority of schools have completed their End of Year (EOY)

Remember you can check your full tasklist for EOY using the End of Year Dashboard.

 Need additional guidance or training? Use the link below to access our guides, book onto a webinar, drop in or book with a CSM.

 We strongly recommend that you complete the End of Year prior to September to avoid any unwanted delays on your return to school and when our helpdesk will be busier than usual.

  • Clubs and Trips (including Wrap-Around care)

  • Dinners

  • Groups

  • Integrations

  • Census - Learning Aims

  • Seating plans

  • EOY issues 

Bromcom Community

Throughout September our near 7000 member strong Bromcom Community will continue to be a hive of knowledge, Live Events, Coffee Mornings and Working User Groups.

Please do continue to ask your questions and share best practice with fellow members as well as Bromcom Staff.

 If you haven't registered for the Community or have additional staff at your school who you feel would benefit from joining, please ask them to login via the brand new Single Sign On (SSO) via the Bromcom MIS help icon, alternatively email their name and email address to [email protected].
