S1-6 pupils are encouraged to access BBC Bitesize for a wide range of revision resources at all stages and levels: www.bbc.co.uk/education.
All senior students have study packs which provide specific materials related to their course of study. These should be used for regular revision. During periods of severe weather, it is expected that students take advantage of the extra study time to re-read longer texts and work on vocabulary acquisition through a range of personal reading. They can also download past papers from www.sqa.org.uk.
News from SQA: At National 5 and Higher level, students are now required by SQA to submit work for the Writing Folio using a designated template. This template has been downloaded and made available through the P drive on the school network. It can also be accessed directly from SQA by clicking here and going to the ‘Submitting Coursework’ tab. Instructions for use are also provided.
