Study Support for Parents

We hear from many parents that they are unsure how to help their children study, so Miss MacNab, one of our Principal Teachers of Guidance, put this video together to help. It is a summary of what the pupils get in school and we hope parents & carers find it useful.

There are chapter markers along the red timeline to allow quick access to particular parts of the video, and there are links to Bitesize Revision website & SQA past papers below the video here and in the description of the video on YouTube.
