SIMs Parent App &
Safer Schools App
As a school, we value continuous, open, and positive correspondence with our parents. We also strive to be a school which is as paperless as is practicably possible. Our primary communication channel with parents, therefore, is the SIMs Parent App, which we use for major announcements, correspondence, and pupil reports. This can be downloaded onto any smart phone and notifications should be turned on throughout term time. Should you encounter any issues with the SIMs Parent App, please contact us promptly via email at parentapp@ljhs.co.uk so we can provide assistance.
At Lurgan Junior High School, we recognise that navigating life as parents with all the challenges that it brings - social media, friendships, self esteem, developing coping strategies and building resilience, to name but a few - is not easy. We invite you to download the Safer Schools App for parents and carers using the information sent out on SIMS Parent App and/or from the permissions booklet sent to our new intake. There is a wealth of resources and guidance available. Please encourage your child to download the relevant version of the App for their year group which will be in their Induction booklet.
