The school uses SIMS, but does not have the CES Census. How do I access it?

Go to Tools | Statutory Returns Tools or Routines | Statutory Returns. If 'Schools CES Census' is missing, there are two possible reasons:

You may not have the necessary permissions to access the CES census module. Ask your SIMS administrator to give you permission to access the census module.

If you have the necessary permission but you still cannot see the CES census, your school may not have installed the census module. In this case Capita will need to send you a patch. Go to http://www.cescensus.org.uk/patch.php and complete the online form to request the Census patch from Capita.
