Information

If you wish an update on your young person’s progress please contact the House Team, who will then link with staff to collate information for you. Please do not contact teachers directly as we need to ensure their focus, on a day to day basis, is learning and teaching.

Uniform Consultation

This survey closes on Sunday at midday. All pupils have been surveyed and staff are also being surveyed. If you wish to read the Scottish Government guidance on school uniform you can access it here.

Thank you to the 75 parents/carers who have already responded, and I do hope you will all manage to complete our questionnaire by Friday 13 March. The more responses we have ensures we have a true representation of our school community’s views and what you believe are the important aspects we need to focus on to continue to improve – even if you feel things are ticking along fine it is...
