EAL consultation with parents and pupils

As part of the EAL service consultation we are consulting with parents and pupils on their experiences of starting education in Scotland. We are looking at what was difficult, what helped and what else could have helped.

We have so far had a face-to-face session with parents from one academy and will be looking to do so with more parents if possible. We have also held sessions with groups of primary pupils and some secondary pupils attended the parent consultation.

Surveys for parents and secondary pupils

In order to reach more bilingual parents and pupils we have created a survey monkey for parents and secondary pupils. These surveys have been translated into key languages (Arabic, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish and Russian).

Please see link below to access the survey and have your say –

Aberdeenshire Council introduced last year a new way of accessing the online payment system, called Myaccount, which many parents & carers have already been using to pay for school meals and for practical course payments for academic year 2016/17 .  

Parents/carers using the online payment facility are required to create a Myaccount username and password (click here for instructions or here to watch a YouTube Video). If you have any concerns or issues with this new process please contact the helpline on 03456 08 12 02.

For all school payments please click on the following link and select “School Payments”
