It's easy to download a copy of the data in Pupil Progress so that you can upload it into your SIMS MIS. First, on Pupil Progress, click **Analysis** from the top bar and choose which year group you are looking to download the data for. Then select **Grade Summary** from the options on the pop-up box before clicking **Continue**.  ![Apr-14-2023 10-51-51](https://support.pupilprogress.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Apr-14-2023%2010-51-51.gif?width=688&height=386&name=Apr-14-2023%2010-51-51.gif) This will show you the **Average Unit Grade** for all of the students in this year group across all subject areas - you can change what grade is being pulled from the 'Source' dropdown along the top bar. You're also able to click 'Configure Columns' above the students' names on the left hand side if you'd like to add any additional fields, such as a unique identifier like Admission Number or UPN.    Once your grade source and columns are configured to what's best for you, toggle **Tools** at the top and then select **Download as XLS**. This will download all of the Grade Summary's raw data as an Excel file, which can then be easily copy and pasted elsewhere as needed. You're able to repeat this process as many times as is necessary across multiple year groups. ![Apr-14-2023 10-56-54](https://support.pupilprogress.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Apr-14-2023%2010-56-54.gif?width=688&height=384&name=Apr-14-2023%2010-56-54.gif) ![image-png-Apr-14-2023-10-03-07-8100-AM](https://support.pupilprogress.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Apr-14-2023-10-03-07-8100-AM.png?width=688&height=397&name=image-png-Apr-14-2023-10-03-07-8100-AM.png)   Now that you have a download of your assessment data, head to SIMS and head to **Routines -\> Data In -\> Assessment -\> Import from Spreadsheet**. Then click **Browse**, where you can find the file that you have downloaded from Pupil Progress. You should then see an **Import from Spreadsheet** screen pop up, where you can map the  appropriate fields to each column. Once you've done this as many times as necessary, click **Next**, where you'll be able to match the students on your Pupil Progress download with your SIMS MIS based on a unique identifier. You're then able to click **Finish** to import the data.    If you require any further support with this, please take a look at the following article from SIMS's help centre: [**Importing Assessment Data Via Spreadsheet**](https://customer.support-ess.com/csm?sys_kb_id=aeda7f3cdbf90094003c4872ba961901&id=kb_article_view&sysparm_rank=1&sysparm_tsqueryId=5dd4d09497e22998a4b17e371153af71) - [Getting set up on Pupil Progress](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/getting-set-up-on-pupil-progress?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Starting off](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/getting-set-up-on-pupil-progress?hsLang=en#starting-off) - [Trackers - first look](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/getting-set-up-on-pupil-progress?hsLang=en#trackers-first-look) - [Using your trackers](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Features and Functions](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#features-and-functions) - [Editing classes](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#editing-classes) - [Tests and Past Papers](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#tests-and-past-papers) - [Tiers](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#tiers) - [Data and Analysis](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/data-and-analysis?hsLang=en) - [Managing your account](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/managing-your-account?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Login issues](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/managing-your-account?hsLang=en#login-issues) - [Permissions](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/managing-your-account?hsLang=en#permissions) - [Subscriptions](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/managing-your-account?hsLang=en#subscriptions) - [For Data Managers](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/for-data-managers?hsLang=en) - [Exam board specific changes](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/exam-board-specific-changes?hsLang=en) - [Who we are and why we exist](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/who-we-are-and-why-we-exist?hsLang=en) - [Contact Page](https://www.pupilprogress.com/contact-us) - [About Page](https://www.pupilprogress.com/about-us) - [Pupil Progress Blog](https://www.pupilprogress.com/blog) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://support.pupilprogress.com/hubfs/logotype-1.svg "Chill listening crop-3")](https://www.pupilprogress.com) Copyright © 2026, Pupil Progress
