Corona Virus Update (Updated 17/3 @ 3.13pm)

Please see the below update regarding the Corona Virus:

 

Remote Access to Learning
In light of the current situation, we wanted to let parents know that we are accelerating our plans to move learning onto digital platforms for remote access. All principal teachers are currently working with their Faculties to ensure that every teacher has their classes set up in Microsoft Teams in order to allow teachers to email young people class work and communicate remotely. We are writing an easy guide to Teams for parents and young people and this will be with you before the end of the week. Once all classes are set up we will let you know via text/email. Our plan is to have this in place for the end of the week.

 

SQA Exams
Guidance from SQA is still that all exams will be going ahead as planned. We await further information and will share this with you as soon as we have it. Teachers are working hard at the moment to ensure all young people meet submission deadlines for internal coursework.

Thank you to all of our parents who are being incredibly supportive in such unprecedented times. We understand there will be a level of concern out there and aim to do our best to reassure by keeping you fully informed as new information is passed on. Stay safe, take care and do not hesitate to get in touch if there is anything we can help you with.
