P7 to S1 Transition Enrolment
Enrolling in secondary school
Enrolment for 2022/23 is currently open.
From 30th November 2021, the Education Service are trialling an online enrolment form for all pupils transferring to secondary school in August 2022.
All applications should be completed online before 15th March 2022.
When accessing the Enrol a child into secondary school form, you will be asked to log in or register for a mygov.scot “myaccount”. You will need this account throughout your child’s education. Once you’ve set this account up, you will then be able to enrol your child(ren) or make a placing request using the online form. To help you create a mygov.Scot account, we’ve made a short ‘how to’ video.

Bereavement and Loss – Information for Young people

We are being asked to support reducing the spread of coronavirus through social distancing and this has an impact on how children may access their support networks and on some of the usual processes for saying goodbye. The pandemic may also make children and young people feel more anxious about their own wellbeing and the wellbeing of those close to them. Below are some resources that may help:
