We have had a very busy first half term with transfer results, special visitors, educational trips and we are certainly ready for a short break over half term. We still have some very exciting events to look ahead to in the remainder of this term.

 

Well done to our P7s who got their AQE results this month- they were absolutely brilliant. 14 pupils sat the test and we were delighted with their outstanding scores. Thank you to all of the parents who attended the P7 transfer interviews.

 

Over the next months we should be starting the whole transfer procedure again in P6. All P6 parents will receive a letter at their parent interview in March explaining the transfer procedure and the systems that we have in place for preparing the children for this. You will then need to start thinking about whether you and your child will be considering applying for the AQE entrance tests for Grammar Schools. You will be aware from the news and newspapers that there is still much uncertainty in this whole procedure. Each time I re­ceive any news from the AQE Association or any developments from Department of Education I will let P6 parents know. If you have any questions or concerns about the process please make an appointment to see me.
