Please see the letter from Donna Manson, Chief Executive, about forthcoming plans for building improvements/extension for Culloden Academy.

Please see the letter below from Highland Council about SQA Provisional Grades. At Culloden Academy these Provisional Grades will be shared with pupils in (former) S4, S5 and S6 on Monday 21st June. Pupils have been made aware of arrangements for this.

Please see the letter below from Dr Vance for all students in S4, S5 and S6. The letter contains information about receiving your assessment results and the appeals process.

The Fire Service recently shared this presentation for secondary age pupils about water safety. During this warm weather and with wild swimming becoming much more of a mainstream activity, it is important everyone is aware of the risks and how to remain safe.

On the In-Service Days on 7th & 8th June, some senior pupils will be completing assessments in school. Only those pupils with assessments scheduled need to come in to school on Monday 7th and Tuesday 8th June. Buses will run as normal for those pupils who require transport but the canteen will not be open. The letter below explains the assessment arrangements for these two days in detail.

As you know, Thursday 6th May is an In-Service Day and the school is closed to all pupils. In addition the Scottish Government has allocated two additional In-Service Days, which in Highland will be:

• Monday 7th June (All Schools)
• Tuesday 8th June (Secondary Schools ONLY)

The letter below clarifies the rationale and arrangements for these additional In-Service Days.

At the end of last week, two positive cases of Covid-19 were confirmed in school. Parents of those pupils who have been identified as close contacts have been informed and the pupils concerned are isolating for a period of 10 days.

Please see the the letter below from NHS Highland for more details.

Staff in school have produced a guide to revision and study skills that may prove useful in helping students prepare for future assessments. The guide below features advice about:

• Organisation and Resources
• Routine and Scheduling
• Learning Styles
• Revision Techniques
• Revision Games
• Revision Resources

The Scottish Government has confirmed that all pupils will return to school after the Easter Break, from Monday 19th April. Please see the letter below from Dr Vance with details about what this means for pupils.
