New Google Additional Service – Google Books
e-Sgoil is pleased to offer a range of full-year, certificated courses that Senior Phase learners anywhere in Scotland can access. These courses are taught via live, online lessons by either e-Sgoil’s GTCS registered teachers, further education lecturers or other approved educators e.g. accredited training officers who deliver Foundation Apprenticeships. The aim of the offer is to help schools create personal pathways for their young people, making courses available where they otherwise wouldn’t be, either due to small numbers, lack of local subject-area expertise or both. It is intended that this offer can sit alongside the school’s in-house option choices.
Full details of the offer can be found at https://www.e-sgoil.com/media/q14fekeo/courses-offer-2025-26.pdf
We ask that you would share details of the offer with schools within your local authority areas, with a view to this complimenting their own in-house curricular offers.
e-Sgoil will be hosting weekly information sessions for School leaders and Local Authority Officers each Monday at 3.45pm. These will run from Monday 24th February and will provide an overview of the offer as well as an opportunity to ask any questions. These sessions can be accessed using this MS Teams link.
