ESS - Key Persons

David has now stepped back from the day-to-day support of SIMS and FMS, but is still very much involved with the team. Our core business is to provide training, support and advice on the Capita SIMS Management Information System (MIS), including FMS6. We support all types of schools, including locally maintained schools, academies, independent schools and free schools, helping them to make the most of the data that they hold. Our ethos is one of sharing good practice and contributing to school improvement. We currently support over 100 schools with SIMS and/or FMS6 on a subscription basis, and can provide ad hoc support, training and consultancy to any other school that uses this software.
