Industrial Action: Broughton High School CLOSED tomorrow

STRIKE: THURSDAY 8 DECEMBER – STUDENTS TO STAY AT HOME

Dear Parents and Carers

Due to employee rights around industrial action, we are unable to collate accurate information around the number of teacher colleagues who will be striking on Thursday 8th December in advance. We are aware that some non-striking colleagues may take action in support of striking colleagues. 

As such we will make the following adaptations to the delivery of Learning and Teaching:

  • All students should stay at home and will receive live online lessons
    • Live online lessons will be made available by non-striking teachers
  • This will require children to have their own device, preferably the iPad provided by school, and to log on at the usual time for lessons. 
  • If no teacher or work is available due to strike action, learners can use
    • Contingency Learning Grids available on the CEC webpage.
    • Alternative forms of learning (e-sgoil, Click etc), available on the CEC webpage.
    • Learning resources provided by individual teachers across subject areas.
  • A free school meal will be available for eligible pupils to collect from school during lunch time.
    • Pupils entitled to a free school meal should report to the school at 13.05-13.30 to collect their meal.
    • Please use the main front doors for entry and exit. Staff will be on duty to assist.
