Oban High School’s Maths and English Departments recently held a joint information evening entitled, ‘How to Help Your Child Pass Higher Maths and English.’ The focus of the evening was to give parents helpful strategies and advice to enable them to support their children through the challenges of these very demanding courses. Information on course outlines, deadlines and content was also discussed and parents were issued with helpful booklets and shown useful websites. In addition, current S6 students spoke about the importance of good study skills and being organised from the beginning of the year.
