Easter School Timetable 2023

Pupils will be asked to sign up for revision classes during an assembly on Wednesday.  Unfortunately pupils will require to organise their own transport to and from school as there will be no school transport available during this time.

Over the next couple of weeks the Pupil Support team will be conducting option interviews with our current S4/5 pupils who are due to move into S5/6 in June.

As you will be aware this is a very important time of the year for all the pupils and parents as it will not only determine courses for next session but it confirms the possible pathways for gaining future qualifications.

With this in mind and to help inform parents and pupils we have provided a copy of the S5/6 option form, a copy of the option information booklet which contains information on each subject available for S5/6, as well as  a copy of the FAQs.

Additionally there is a booklet detailing Foundation Apprenticeships on offer for next session.

Booking Information for Parents

Dear parent/carer,

As you may be aware, two of the teacher unions, the Scottish Secondary Teachers’ Association (SSTA) and the National Association of Schoolmasters Union of Women Teachers (NASUWT), intend to carry out industrial action over the national pay offer and their members plan to strike on Wednesday 7 December 2022.

I wanted to get in touch with you directly as the impact of the industrial action may mean that you will need to consider additional childcare arrangements on that day.

We have made an assessment on the impact this will have on our school and on the school day for pupils.

(Please click on the link below to access the full details from this letter.)
