S3 EXAMS 2024
SCHOOL CALENDAR FOR 29TH APRIL – 16TH MAY 2024
Dear Parent/Guardian.
The timetable for S3 examinations is now available. (please click on the link below to access this timetable).
Pupils will follow their normal timetable during the exam period, and examinations will take place in classrooms during the time your child attends that subject. The examinations are timetabled mainly across three weeks to allow reasonable time for both revision at home and assessments in school.
The purpose of the examination diet is to give pupils and staff an indication of the progress pupils are making on courses and also to help pupils prepare for the experience of sitting National Qualification examinations in S4. Our new timetable for next year will start on Monday 3rd June, and all pupils will be issued their new timetable for S4 on that day. Pupils opting to study Modern Languages, Business and Administration in senior phase will complete assessments in the week beginning the 10th June.
SNSA ASSESSMENTS
The Scottish National Standardised Assessments for Scotland (SNSA) cover aspects of reading, writing and numeracy, providing teachers with indicative, diagnostic information on learners’ progress in these curricular areas. These assessments are completed nationally for all children and young people in P1, P4, P7 and S3. All S3 pupils will complete these online assessments within Maths and English classes prior to the end of May. The assessments are marked automatically allowing teachers immediate diagnostic feedback to help young people progress in literacy and numeracy.
I would like to inform you of healthy dialogue taking place about the format and timing of these S3 exams in the future. We have consulted staff recently and will be consulting all S3 pupils and their parents about their views on the matter next term.
I welcome your support in helping your child to prepare for these examinations.
Yours faithfully
Mrs L McGuigan
