School Records on Armed Forces Data
Dumfries and Galloway Council have asked the school to update our records to reflect how many pupils have parents or carers who are currently serving in the armed forces, or who have previously served in them. If your child has a parent/ carer who is a regular, reserve or veteran and if you are willing to disclose this information to us then please email the school office with details. The office email is gw08officecrossmicha@ea.dumgal.sch.uk . Thank you for your assistance.
