Reporting Absences COVID-19

We are keen to support parents to ensure all young people are Cyber safe, especially with the growing use of a wide range of Apps and online forms of communication (WhatsApp/TikTok/Instagram/Snapchat etc).  As part of our continued commitment, we are delighted to promote our new ‘Safer Schools’ App.  This App is a reliable source of advice on all things Cyber.  It gives empowering, current and informative information on all current digital platforms/tools/apps in an accessible manner. We have a range of tailored user accesses (pupil, staff and parents/carers).  To access your parent platform please:

-Go to your app store or Google Play and search for ‘Safer School’

-In school field type ‘East Ayrshire Council’

-The code for primary parents is: 7440

We would recommend that you discuss with your child about which apps and social media platforms they currently use/access. This will help ensure they know how to stay safe online – using the app to start these types of conversations is great.

Our nursery is taking part in the NAP SACC UK research study

Our nursery has been selected to take part in a national research study which is looking at ways to support nurseries in the work they do to support children’s health.  This study will test a programme from the United States, called ‘NAP SACC’. You can view our short film about the study, here: vimeo.com/368012574

If your child is aged 2 years or older, is not yet attending school, and is attending the nursery for 12 hours per week across the year or 15 hours per week during term time you will receive an invitation for them to take part.  If you would like to speak to someone before you make up your mind, a researcher will be visiting the nursery to answer questions on Wednesday, 5^th February 2020 – look out for the ‘NAP SACC UK’ posters. You can also contact the research team by email or telephone: sphsu-napsacc@glasgow.ac.uk or 0800 389 2129.
