ONLINE PAYMENTS FOR SCHOOL

Online payments are being introduced in all schools across North Lanarkshire to provide parents/carers with more convenient and flexible methods of payment for school expenses.  This service will also allow pupils to reduce the amount of cash they carry to school and help reduce administration and cash handling in schools.  Cash and cheque payments can still be made in the same way as at present.

The new safe and secure payment system, called iPayImpact, will enable parents/carers to pay online  for school uniform, trips and other school expenses using a credit or debit card.   As soon as  funds are added for school meals, the money will immediately be available for your child/children to spend in the school canteen.

Letters with full information about the system and details of your child’s unique activation code have been sent home with pupils (see example below). If you have not received this letter, please contact the school.

Course Choice Information Evening – Thursday, 18th February

S2, S3, S4 and S5 pupils will soon be making important decisions about their course choices for the next academic year.

Pupils, parents and carers are invited to come along to the Calderhead High School Course Choice Information Evening on Thursday, 18th February 2016.  All pupils and parents from S2, S3, S4 and S5 are most welcome. It’s an opportunity to speak with the Senior Management Team regarding course structure and the options process. Pupil Support staff will be on hand to answer and advise both pupils and parents. Tea and Coffee will be supplied and the event starts at 6 pm.

S4 and S5 will have a meeting with Mr Graham (6 pm) and then afterwards the opportunity to speak with Pupil Support staff.

S2 and S3 will have a meeting with Ms Darragh (6 pm) and thereafter the opportunity to speak with Pupil Support staff.

The course choice process is a very important time in the school calendar and as such we would encourage parents to help us to support our young people by attending the event with them.
