Staffing

Chloe McNeill – a huge thank you to Chloe for her amazing work covering Mrs Gourlay’s maternity leave. Mrs Gourlay has now returned to Knox Academy and I am delighted to say that Ms McNeill has a permanent teaching post to go to in Edinburgh. All the very best to her for the future and for all she has done for us here at Knox – including all her work on Deaf Awareness and running extra-curricular classes too.

Revised School Uniform

Our revised school uniform can be found here. As this was a whole school consultation we would ask that all pupils adhere to this as it was a community descision and offers not only the traditional unform but a blended model too so pupils can mix/match for comfort too. Please note that hooded tops are not part of the revised uniform and should not be worn in school. Thank you for your support with this.
