Home Learning for S2 Students Who Are Self-Isolating

This Edinburgh Learns Learning Grid provides S2 students who are self-isolating with a range of activities to complete this week. On Monday 5^th October, a second Learning Grid will be posted on the school website. In addition to these Learning Grids, young people in S2 should access their Microsoft Teams OneNote Class Notebook for Mathematics and login to Sumdog to complete numeracy activities from home. Further learning activities will be emailed directly to young people by their class teachers. If a young person is having difficulty completing online activities at home, they should contact their guidance teacher for support and advice.  

Message from Ruth McKay, Head Teacher and NHS Lothian

We are aware of a pupil in the school who has tested positive for COVID-19. We are working closely with NHS Lothian Health Protection Team and following all national guidance.

Information is currently being gathered and a number of people will be contacted because they may have been in close and sustained contact with the case and will need to self-isolate. They will be given appropriate guidance and advice.

An update via text will be sent to you as soon as the tracking and tracing process is complete.

If you are not contacted directly to tell you your child is a close contact your child should attend school as normal.

Enhanced cleaning and infection control measures are in place in line with national guidance. The school is safe and remains open.

If you have any concerns in the meantime, or if you need to book a COVID-19 test because your child has developed symptoms (high temperature, a new continuous cough and/or a loss or change in sense of smell or taste) please visit the NHS Inform website www.nhsinform.scot or for non-clinical advice call 0800 028 2816.

Please note that a test should only ever be booked if you or your child has these specific symptoms.

Remember to stay at home if anyone in the household has symptoms of COVID-19.
