Beat the Street

Isobel Mair School pupils will now be playing an exciting and adapted version of the Beat the Street game, in which pupils work together to achieve a points target set by Beat the Street. We will have our own Leaders board ‘Empowered School Leaderboard’ instead of entering onto the Communal Leaders Board, working as a collective to gain points and reach a target together with a trophy + prize for the school in the end (when we reach our points target).

Pupils participating while out in the community with their families can still continue to do so and will still be eligible for ‘lucky prizes’ like everyone else but instead of points showing up on the Communal Leader Board we will have our own special IMS Points Board ‘Empowered School Leaderboard’ and all points will be combined to go towards target.

Can parents please attach fobs onto coat zippers to encourage the game both at school, home and in the community.

- Pupils, Parents

By using digital technology, we can replace the traditional ‘schoolbag run’ while also reducing paper transactions and the administrative burden on schools. This will help to support both pupils, parents and schools during the challenging times that Covid-19 has brought to us all.

Parentsportal.scot will provide access to a suite of online services, initially including information about:

  • a child’s education such as the school calendar and events
  • access to your secondary child’s timetable
  • access to your child’s attendance
  • completion of the annual data check online.

It will allow you to update your own details as well as your linked child’s details at any time.
