SQA Exams and Study Leave
The last day of school before Study Leave is Friday 27 April when all pupils are expected
in school as per normal timetable. Study leave will take place from Monday 30 April
2018 to Friday 1 June 2018. Mrs McNally will meet with all S4 - S6 pupils on Tuesday
17 April to issue exam timetables and any last information from the SQA. All pupils will
return to school on Monday 4 June. Further information will follow after the Easter
break.
As with previous years, all S5/S6 pupils are granted Study Leave, as well as S4 pupils who
have three or more N5 External Assessments. Letters will be sent out to parents and
carers of pupils who are taking less than three N5 exams offering an alternative
timetable arrangement during the month of May. This arrangement has run very
successfully over the past three years for those based in school.
We do, of course, encourage all pupils to continue to attend school where they will be
able to study and continue to meet with staff during their normal timetabled time, to
discuss their courses and assessments. Some pupils may also have some work to
complete and will be notified of this.
Pupils should always be in uniform when in school either for exams or study.
Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you wish to discuss anything further.
