Updated Information
Dear Parent/Carer,
We have updated our FAQ Section on our main website
(https://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/nl/mossendps/) and hope that this will answer some questions and we will continue to update as information becomes available and is confirmed.
We would ask that you please bear with us as you may see updates from NLC before the school.
As you will appreciate, staff have not returned to school yet and therefore it can take some time to communicate and distribute information. We are working hard to get information to you as quickly as possible regarding nursery specific details.
Please check our website, app and Twitter and follow @NLCPeople for the latest information. You can also keep up to date with the latest North Lanarkshire Council school plans by visiting

School Recovery Plans and FAQ
Good afternoon
Please click on the link below where you will find an updated letter from Derek Brown.
www.northlanarkshire.gov.uk/schoolplans
I have also attached an FAQ sheet for your reference.
Attached are the draft plans for Mossend Primary School.
I am sure that will appreciate this is a draft recovery plan as many things will change before our return.
We have been extremely thorough in our planning and have tried to take into consideration potential difficulties for parents and families. We appreciate that returning to school may present a challenge for working families but we have ensured that all siblings are together and children have been placed in working groups where possible.
I will endeavour to provide you with information as soon as I receive it during the school holidays.
Mrs Paterson
