Dear parent/carers,
Many of you have successfully managed to access the Parents Portal. However, some users have had problems linking with their children. Due to security requirements the linking process is, by necessity, very sensitive. As a way to help any users who are having problems linking to their children, a Child Link Failure Parent Troubleshooting Guide has been published, detailing most of the common problems and how to resolve these.
Knox Academy is pleased to invite applications for the following vacancy:
Closing Date: Sunday 15 April 2022
All current and previous vacancies can be viewed within our Recruitment section of our website.
Jason Leitch (National Clinical Director) has written to all parents/carers:
"To Parents, Carers and Young People, As I’ve tried to do throughout the pandemic, I wanted to share the latest advice about the way we are managing Covid-19. From Sunday 1 May, public health advice will change to a ‘stay at home’ message and replace self-isolation for people who have symptoms or have tested positive for Covid-19. As a result, people who have symptoms of Covid-19 and who have a fever or are too unwell to carry out normal activities will be asked to stay at home while they are unwell or have a fever. They will no longer be advised to take a PCR test. These changes will also see testing for the general population and most contact tracing end on 30 April."
By working together, the RNLI and Her Majesty’s Coastguard (HMCG) save hundreds of lives each year. Sadly, too many people continue to get into difficulty. We aim to save every one . The RNLI Key Water Safety Message booklet can help you keep people safe.
Parents Portal is now live, a new way for parents to access information on their children, interact with their schools and easily access other school services. Parents can now access the Portal by using the same myaccount login (which is used for SchoolPay) to update parent and child details, report absences, access SchoolPay, and much more. Over time, more services will be available. For more information on how parents can log into the Parents Portal and “link” to their children, visit the East Lothian Council website.
Please note, it is advised that parents of P7 pupils wait to sign up to the Parents Portal until they start at their new school in August
An updated Risk Assessment, to take into account updates during the holidays, has now been published. This is effective from 25 April 2022.
Dear Parents and Carers,
I last wrote to you on 8 April regarding COVID-19 measures in schools after the Easter break. On 13 April the Scottish Government subsequently issued an update to its guidance.
I am therefore writing to advise you of the key changes which will now apply when our schools return on 25 April. These changes primarily relate to the use of face coverings.
Full details are available in the letter issued on Monday 25 April 2022 from Nicola McDowell, Head of Education Service.
