S5 and S6 Prelim Reports

All S5 S6 pupils have received by email today (8th Feb) a copy of their Prelim Report, and a copy has been sent by email to parents/carers too.

The Prelim Report should be read alongside the Prelim Report Guide at the link below. Prelims do not assess the whole course as the delivery of course content continues in classrooms, and in most instances, there is an additional internal piece of coursework which can influence final grades.

Many thanks to parents who have booked appointments for the S5 S6 Parents’ Evening which takes place on Tues 21 February 2023, in school. The Booking System remains open and there are still appointments available. We have uploaded the arrangements for making appointments and if any parent has difficulties in doing this, please contact the school office.

Our Careers Advisers will be in attendance at the Parents’ Evening for any S5 S6 parent who wishes to seek information about post 16 Options.
