Information to Parents and Carers
Further to the statement by the First Minister on Wednesday 18th March Braidhurst High School will be closed for normal business from Monday 23rd March. The school may remain open for the following purposes;
- Support young people who are vulnerable
Support young people complete SQA assessments- Support young people of key workers
More information will be provided about how we will action this as soon as it becomes available.
Pupils are encouraged to continue with their education from home. Teaching staff have tried to make materials and resources available on a digital platform (Glow) and/or textbooks and printed notes. All young people have been issued with their Glow username and password to allow them to access resources sent directly from their own class teacher. If your child has lost or forgotten their Glow log in details these can be obtained by phoning the school office on 01698 274999.
In addition the Deputy First Minister announced on Thursday 19th March that all SQA exams are cancelled however young people will still be accredited for the work they have done throughout the year. It is important that your child ensures all SQA coursework is completed to enable us to send this to SQA.

Braidhurst Food Bank
At a time of crisis our community values and strength lead us to think of and act on behalf of our most at need and vulnerable. While the next few weeks may well be challenging for many of us, for some the prospects are extremely bleak. Therefore we invite you to hand in to the school office tinned and dried goods that we can then distribute to those who we know would benefit from your generosity. This could include:
- Tinned fruit
- Tea bags
- Dried Pasta
- UHT Milk
- Breakfast Cereals
Basically anything non-perishable would be very useful. Please offer whatever you can and either hand it into the office or a member of teaching staff from Wednesday morning onwards.
Your help as always is greatly appreciated and hopefully together we can make a small difference.
