The SQA has created an information booklet: ‘What you need to know for 2021 – National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher’ qualifications.

This details the process used to determine provisional results and describes the Quality Assurance process for this session.  The booklet is available to download from the SQA website and will be posted directly to your child w/c 15 March.

In addition to this, at Woodfarm High School we have also been working closely with the other ERC secondary schools to produce information for pupils and parents, which gives details of collaborative working across the authority to quality assure assessments in all subjects and to moderate pupils work.  This information along with the attached ‘frequently asked questions’ can be found at: https://covid.eastrenfrewshire.gov.uk/provisional-results.
