English grade being picked up as Maths highest grade

When clicking Populate from Exams, the Maths Highest Grade field for students should only be concerned with Maths results, as was the case in previous years.  Unfortunately, an error in SIMS’ coding means that where a student has achieved a higher grade for English lang/lit than for Maths, the highest English lang/lit grade is being added instead of the highest Maths grade.

Schools can either manually edit the Maths highest grade or apply Version 1 of the Consolidated Workstation Patch which has been authorised for application in schools using SOLUS 3.

Schools wishing to avoid a workstation update across the school may wish to extract the zip file here and manually replace the files listed below in the \sims .net folder on workstations where census work is taking place.

  • Pulsar.exe

  • SchoolCensusProcesses.dll

  • ThirdPartyProcesses.dll
