The BGE Guidance has been updated below with additions/correction to Teams codes for Science:
Supporting Learning at Home for S1-S3: Guidance for Pupils and Parents
Good evening BGE pupils and parents (again),
Until this point, the emphasis has been on contingency planning for pupils in the Senior Phase and making arrangements for SQA-driven deadlines. However, we are acutely aware that our pupils in S1-S3 might also be feeling unsettled and anxious at the change to their daily routine. Our amazing staff have been working to pull together resources that will allow all S1-3 pupils to continue with their learning at home with support from their teachers and online sources where possible.
Again, we know this is not normal. However, all pupils are aware of their current timetable and should be able to split their time approximately as guided by that each day, using the guidance below to access instructions from teachers where appropriate or to guide their own learning using the online resources. We will continue to add to this over the coming weeks as it is essential that our pupils continue to learn and hone their skills in preparation for returning to school.
We also have developing plans to support the mental health and wellbeing of our pupils and parents over this unsettling time and will share these with you as soon as we have them ready.
You have been amazing S1-S3 and I am so proud of you. Keep working hard and taking care of or helping the people around you. That’s worth more learning than anything else right now.
Take care
Mr Miller
Head Teacher
