Leavers’ Information

Lots of information was covered with all leavers in an assembly with Mrs Bain yesterday. 

Timetable change, SQA arrangements  and leaving arrangements are all different from any other year and we thank you for bearing with us as we navigate through this.

The main points are here for your information and reassurance.

Timetable change: ​

  • 8th June due to COVID and exceptional SQA circumstances ​
  • allows more time for moderation and any required further assessments​

​

SQA:

Some pupils have to stay on until 4th June to complete assessments: teachers will advise individuals.​

​

Provisional SQA grades may be subject to change after moderation between staff which may lead to further assessment.​

​

Leaving Arrangements:

Option a) S6 Students who have completed all assessments and anyone who has a start date with an employer next week may leave on Friday 28th May.​

​(Staff will have to sign leavers’ form. In order to do this, staff will have to be very clear before signing the form that assessments are all completed.)​

Option b) Leavers’ day for everyone else is Friday 4th June.​

Leavers’ forms should be collected from the School Office on the relevant week. (This week for option a and next week for option b.)
