Update from NLC on return to full-time school

Good evening

Please see below a statement from North Lanarkshire Council.

Today’s announcement from the Scottish Government outlines the plan to reopen all schools on a full-time basis from August.

We are currently considering the practicalities and implications of this announcement and will await further clarification and guidance from government, particularly in relation to public health and scientific advice.

Our priority is the safety of our pupils and staff across our network of primary, secondary and ASN schools, as well as our early learning and childcare settings.

We understand that you will have questions, and as this news was only announced today, we will make further information available on how this impacts on our schools and facilities in the coming days.

We are preparing for pupils to return full-time to school on 12 August and we will be working closely with our schools and partners, including our early years and childcare provision to establish our plans, which we will communicate as soon as we are in a position to.

Head of Education (North)

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.

School 2020 Souvenir

Dear Parents/Carers,

It has been a memorable year and our great Parent Council are arranging to commemorate this by taking orders for personalised souvenir tea towels/bags which have class-specific pupil names on them. This would be a great memory to keep and look back on in the years to come and cost only £5.00 per design, but a minimum order of 15 is required per class.

If you would like to place an order then please contact Mrs Gardner on our Parent Council directly as soon as possible.  Our Parent Council have their own Facebook page and Twitter account.

Staffing Updates – 2020/2021

Good morning

I hope that this email finds you all well and looking forward to the Summer holidays.  We have now had our staffing confirmed and I hope to be able to share with you the teacher your child will have in August by the end of the week.

Some of our staff are leaving us and we are incredibly sad to lose them.

Mrs Martin from our Nursery is taking early retirement – we thank Mrs Martin for everything she has done for our children and their families for a number of years.  Mrs Martin had been a highly valued member of staff in Mossend Primary and Nursery Class and she will be greatly missed by us all.  We wish Mrs Martin a long and happy retirement.

Mr Stewart, Miss Macbeth, Mrs Weir and Mr Malik are also leaving us at the end of term. Although they have only been with us for a short time, they have brought so many strengths to our school.  We will miss them all and we wish them every good wish in their new schools.

I will be in touch to provide you with the plan for moving forward in August.

Kindest regards

Mrs Paterson

Parent Council Updates

Dear Parent/Carer,

Our Parent Council are having a Uniform Bank. If any parent has uniform items they would like to donate they should hand them into Andrea Gardner.  The items should be washed and placed in a bag. Parents can contact Andrea via the PC Facebook page, Twitter and email.

Also, the Parent Council are having a closed meeting this evening and will ensure all minutes of the meeting are posted to enable everyone to see them.
They will also post details of future meetings which will hopefully allow everyone to log in and join if they wish to do so.

Many thanks
