Central Glasgow Focus Group – 26 May 2015, 7-9pm (venue tbc – city centre)

As part of the National Parent Forum of Scotland’s commitment to support Local Authorities, schools and parents to improve parental involvement, we would like to invite you to an event we are holding to hear about the experiences of you and your child.

We are very interested in discussing how you have found the firest year of the new Higher Qualifications and how the roll out of the N5 Qualifications has progressed.  We value your reflections of how you feel that the session 2014/15 has gone and ways that could help the progression of the next year of pupils sitting N4, N5 and Higher qualifications.

The NPFS will in turn feedback this parental perspective, at the national level, to the CfE Mangement Board, members of which include Scottish Government, Eduaiton Scotland and the SQA.  If you would like to book a place or would like more information please contact our Glasgow representative Joanna Murphy on glasgow@npfs.org.uk.  Travel expenses can be reimbursed.

The National Parent Forum of Scotland has produced Revision in a Nutshell guides for the new Highers (20 subjects) and updated Revision guides for National 5s (20 subjects).  These revision guides contain direct links to SQA specimen question papers, exemplar question papers plus past question papers, where appropriate.   The guides advise learners to check with their teachers to make sure that material is relevant. The guides are primarily intended to provide the SQA direct links by subject in one place, and to give some additional revision opportunities.
