Coronavirus Advice & Online Learning

This page has been created to ensure that parents and carers are kept up-to-date with relevant information while the school is closed.

During this time, learning is being delivered through Microsoft Teams. All students have access to this through GLOW. Staff are have set up Teams for each class (or in some cases year groups). Work is set regularly and pupils can contact their teacher for help and advice. Links to parent and student guides for accessing Teams are available below.

The Home Learning Curriculum Overviews have information about the learning planned for our young people this term. The New Timetables below are examples to support pupils to plan and organise their time.

While the school is closed, please use kyle.mail@south-ayrshire.gov.uk to communicate with us. Someone will get back to you as soon as they can.
