What is Future Friday?

Future Friday is an enrichment afternoon organised by North Lanarkshire Council. Formal education ends at 12:30pm and the afternoon allows all learners the opportunity to get involved in new activities which will enrich their educational experience. All pupils are eligible and encouraged to take part in the enrichment activities on a Friday afternoon. The Principal Teacher at St. Maurice’s High School is Mrs Swanson.

What is expected of pupils at Future Friday?

All pupils can attend any activity of their choice. Some activities require pupils to sign-up in advance. If pupils are taking part in an opportunity where accreditation is available, they must take responsibility for their work and adhering to deadlines. The school cafeteria will be available to all pupils during lunch time (12:30- 1:15pm). However, from 1:15pm pupils should only be in the building if they are engaging in a Future Friday Activity.
