Please find the Supported Study Timetable for January and February leading up to the senior school prelims starting on the 8th of February. As you prepare for the upcoming prelims we would strongly recommend that you attend all of the sessions that are relevant to your subject.
All of the sessions will start immediately at the end of the school day and last for one hour. For more information about the individual sessions please speak to your class teachers or the Principal teacher of the department in question.
Scholar – an online resource developed by Heriot Watt university – have been updating and extending their courses to fit with the new National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher courses.
Scholar is an exciting resource that allows students to access free course materials for a variety of subjects. In addition Scholar have been running Live Homework Sessions, which have proved particularly popular.
Students will require their Scholar login details to access these resources; speak to either your class teacher about obtaining these or see Mr Boag in Maths.
Four of our young people – Nicola Miller, Sophie Turnbull, Callum Scott and Ronan Park-Patterson – are currently in Malawi (the poorest country in the world) with the ERC group of 26 pupils from all the high schools, together with some staff.
They have all worked together to raise money to fund the trip and also allow them to participate in activities that would benefit the local people. They will be working in the Kaponda district that has been a focus for the work of Barrhead Councillor Betty Cunningham for the past few years.
They have set up a Twitter account so folk at home can follow what they are up to – ERC Malawi2015.
