SQA Exam Results and Re-Coursing

Dear Parents/Carers, SQA exam results will be with pupils on the 6th August. For those who require it, pupils will be able to re-course with their PTPS on Thursday 8th August in the school from 9.30am-12.30pm. This will be strictly by appointment only. Pupils can book a ten minute appointment by phoning during school hours on August the 6th or 7th and arranging a time slot with the Office. Parents/Carers are free to accompany their sons/daughters if necessary. Thanks!

Pupil/Parent/Carer Literacy Survey

Pupil/Parent/Carer Literacy Survey

For parents of S1 pupils Can you complete the following questionnaire with your young learner in order to capture pupil/parental/carer data around attitudes towards reading. I know that the end of term is fast approaching, but if this could be supported it would be greatly appreciated. You will be able to complete this together with your young learner on a smart phone. https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/JG3TS/

Senior Pupils Braiding

After consultation with staff and almost unanimous decision from pupils, it has been decided that ALL S5/6 pupils will be able to have braiding on their blazers! Academy Uniforms can add braiding and will be in school on Friday 21st June from 10am-12pm to accommodate this and any other uniform requests from current pupils in all years. A price for braiding is being negotiated and will be communicated asap. The choice is of course optional, as is the option of using Academy Uniforms.
