We are delighted to share the news that the school was officially presented with its Digital Schools Award yesterday at an awards ceremony at St Mungo’s High School, Falkirk.

Representatives from Education Scotland, HP and Microsoft presented our delegates, Mr Hardie, Miss Cooper and S5 pupil Morgan Cumming, with the Digital Schools Award plaque to recognise the progress made and commitment to embedding digital learning across the curriculum in Stewarton Academy.

Mr Miller, the school’s new Head Teacher, was delighted to see the efforts of the staff, pupils and partners recognised. “The programme offers schools a real opportunity to build on their digital capabilities,” he said. “We are very proud of the work undertaken to achieve the Digital Schools Award. Developing the digital skills that will enable our pupils to compete and thrive in the modern economy is a vital part of the work we do and we look forward to building on this success and embedding digital technology and learning further across out curriculum.”

Could all parents please remember to log in to their Parent Pay account regularly and ensure that balances for lunches, trips and events are up to date? This will make the process of reminding parents with outstanding balances more manageable as we move forward. We appreciate your support in this and ask that you get in touch with the Pastoral Support team should there be any issues you require support with.
