Hi everyone! All English teams have been updated for the new session. We are now posting work that will allow you to get started with your new courses and help you prepare for next year. Check out your new Team on Glow! Take care and stay safe. @St_Maurice_High

@StMoEnglish For anyone who enjoys playing countdown to improve their literacy skills, here is a link to a website which allows you to play it online at home. You need to have adobe flash to use it: primaryhomeworkhelp.co.uk/maths/countdow… Take care everyone. See you all soon 🙏@St_Maurice_High

Microsoft Teams have now been set up for lower school too. Here are the class codes to join: S1 - w0623nf S2 - d39iw5u S3 - n6lxhgd

Given Friday’s further restrictions on social distancing we need to take more action to keep numbers in schools to an absolute minimum. S4-6 pupils SHOULD NOT attend school to complete coursework. @sqanews supports this. Grateful to all schools for their support to young people.

St Maurice’s will be open tomorrow only for learners who have parents categorised as key workers - it is not business as usual. Also, where one parent is a key worker, the young person should remain at home with the other parent/carer. Single parent families exempt obviously.

Mate applied for a temporary job at @Tesco this morning at 7am, got a call at 12pm to go for an interview at 3pm and has got the job! Anyone who is currently looking for any work, try all of the supermarkets as they are desperate for staff to keep the shelves stocked for us.

Thinking of all the children having their last day at school for a while. I so wish we weren’t having to do this - but it is essential to help us reduce the impact of #coronavirus. So to all young people - keep studying, but also have some fun (& don’t forget to wash your hands!)

@BarrettPender @St_Maurice_High Hi Megan, Log into Glow and go to Microsoft Teams. You should be able to input the code to join the N5/Higher team there and you'll find the study materials under the files tab. Hope this helps!

@StMoEnglish @St_Maurice_High where do i put in the code to access the study materials

We are currently uploading resources to Glow for our N5 and Higher pupils. Use the following Class Codes to access study materials: Higher: uskf8pf National 5: kk1t2vr

Following the DFM’s announcement today, we're working hard on our plans to support children of key workers, vulnerable children and the delivery of SQA coursework. We fully understand that people are desperate for information & we'll announce details tomorrow (Friday)

For anyone who is struggling to access their Glow account, below are two links on Youtube which show you how to access it from a Xbox One and from a PS4 @social_sahs @StAndrewsHS Xbox One: youtube.com/watch?v=rWTwAf… PS4 youtube.com/watch?v=mHTHaX…

Statement by the Chief Executive of the Scottish Qualifications Authority and Scotland’s Chief Examining Officer - Thursday 19 March - bit.ly/3a5mybl

So society’s *real* key workers have just been revealed. Not the bankers. Not the traders. Not the elite hedge fund managers. It’s the nurses. The doctors. The delivery drivers. The carers. The porters. The teachers. The shelf stackers. The check out staff. #COVID19

Our govt has made the difficult decision to close our schools to pupils from Friday - this does not mean that we have abandoned you!! Keep following our Twitter page and keep checking Edmodo + Glow for resources. Take care of yourselves and stay safe in this difficult time. 💜
