Foundation Apprenticeships

Dear Parent/Guardian,

Please find below a message from Skills Development Scotland (SDS):

SDS and NPFS are arranging a session on Foundation Apprenticeships for parents and carers on Tuesday 14th December from 7pm-8pm.

This session gives the opportunity to find out about Foundation Apprenticeships including who they’re for, how they work and the benefits.

During this one hour session we’ll talk through the value and equivalency of the qualification in terms of SCQF levels and UCAS points. We’ll also share pupil journeys and how Foundation Apprenticeships helped them progress onto a job such as a Modern or Graduate Apprenticeship, college or university. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions at the end.

Please find below the Eventbrite registration link to attend:

S4 – S6 Prelim Schedule December 2021 and January 2022

S4 – S6  PRELIM SCHEDULE DECEMBER 2021 AND JANUARY 2022 

Please find attached the schedule for prelim examinations in Cardinal Newman High school this year. 

Prelim exams for S4-6 will take on the following dates. 

Monday 6th – Friday 17th December 2021

Monday 24th Jan- Friday 4th February 2022

These examinations will take place during class time and are formal assessments and should be treated as such by young people. Students will only have one formal prelim examination on any given day throughout these two periods.

Students who require additional exam arrangements, will received notification in due course from Miss Morrison in Support for Learning about their individual prelim arrangements, however they will be on the same dates as shown on the schedule,

While these are the main formal assessments, other tests and opportunities for evidence gathering  will take place during the school year to enable teachers to have a range of evidence available to support their professional judgement on working grades for tracking and report as well as recommended levels for presentation and estimates to SQA.

We would hope that all young people are already preparing for these assessments through regular study and revision and the use of support materials including the National Online support study offer through E-sgoil  https://e-sgoil.com/study-support/#ss_timetable
