About TDA ePortal
Thomas Deacon Academy ePortal is unavailable as of 2015-2016 academic year. The ePortal system was replaced by SIMS, which currently cannot be accessed outside of the school network. You can log in to TDA SIMS using TDA Connect. Alternatively, much of the data is now available through the VLE which you can access above.
The Thomas Deacon Academy ePortal will allow you to view your timetable, attendance and other school records. Access your student details as recorded on the system, including address and emergency contact information, as well as reports and events. Staff have the ability to access student information and complete attendance registers which will appear on the TDA Student ePORTAL and be accessible by parent login.
