SQA Results Day
Just a reminder that results will be posted to you on Tuesday 9th August, if you sign up to MySQA you can get your results by text or email.
When you receive your results and you wish to appeal a result because you feel you underperformed on the day of the exam then you must realise that you can only appeal if your estimate is higher than the grade shown on your certificate.
You can submit an appeal request yourself – more information how to do this will be available before Results Day.
If the school has submitted an Examination Exceptional Circumstances Consideration Service (EECCS) request then you are not eligible to use the appeals service.
SQA have placed Information for Learners in the Appeals 2022 page of the main website. A hard copy of this Information for Learners will also be sent directly to learners at the end of July.
In all cases you should contact Mr. Campbell at the school to get advice and guidance before submitting an appeal request. This is especially important if pupils are needing an appeal decision before College/University entry.
This information will also be placed in S4/5/6/ GOOGLE CLASSROOMS.
On behalf of all the staff at the school we wish all our S4/5/6 pupils of 2021/22 the best of luck when the 9th of August comes around.
Mrs. Booth
Head Teacher

Letter to Parents and Carers
Message from Chief Education Officer
Dear parent/carer
As you may be aware, the Scottish Government has announced changes to the plans to ease Covid-19 restrictions over the festive period and has also confirmed an extension to the school Christmas break.
Children and young people will now be on holiday from school from tomorrow afternoon (Tuesday) until Monday, January 11, and will then learn online at home until at least January 18.
The move has been made in response to concerns over a new strain of coronavirus and is one of a number of measures being taken to prevent and control the spread.
Our education team has been working on plans over the weekend to support our young people and families in January.
We are awaiting further detail from the Scottish Government and this information is expected later today. Once received, we will be in touch with you to confirm our plans including details on provision for vulnerable children and children of key workers. We will maintain free school meals for all entitled pupils.
Thank you for your continued support, patience and understanding.
Yours sincerely
Laura Mason

Change to Government Advice re periods of isolation - Contact and trace - 30/09/2020
Dear parent/carer,
Please note that Government guidance relating to periods of isolation for households has changed and the new guidance takes effect from today.
PLEASE NOTE
- The guidance remains that if a household member tests positive for Covid all other members of the household must isolate for 14 days.
-
As of today (Wednesday 30 September) due to a change to Scottish Government guidance, it is only the close contact of a positive COVID case that must self isolate NOT their siblings and families/household.
-
Any sibling or family member who is not the close contact can return to school/work tomorrow (Thursday 1 October).
If you or any member of your family therefore have been advised to isolate and are not the main identified contact, you can return to school/work from Thursday of this week.
Thank you once again for your ongoing patience during these challenging times and with the ever changing advice being generated.
Should you have any further questions, please contact the school office.
