SCHOOL VISITORS

Visitors from North Lanarkshire and North Ayrshire education authorities recently visited Braidhurst High to see the work going on in the Nurture Unit. Led by Principal Educational Psychologist Alison MacDonald, they spent an entire morning in the base with pupils and staff seeing the work being undertaken. They also spoke with Mrs Nicola Ritchie, Principal Teacher of Learning Support, and teacher Elizabeth Neilson who both outlined the type of work undertaken in various year groups. The pupils showcased a range of practical activities to the visitors who then took part with the pupils. Senior Depute Head Teacher Mrs Kathryn Clarke also took part and outlined the background issues associated with the setting up of the base.
