HT Feedback: Response 20/02/24

Tuesday 20th February 2024

Response to feedback submitted from HT Update week ending 09/02/24.  Apologies for the slight delay,  first day back yesterday was busy!

My Question | Comment | Suggestion related to the school this week is: HT’s Response

Can acronyms be clearer in the weekly updates pls. I don’t know what LEAPS or BGEd means so no idea if it’s relevant. I’ve thought this before so thought I may as well feedback. Thanks

This is a fair point.  School communication should be as jargon and acronym free as possible.  I’ve a bad habit of going to what is familiar to me.  I’ll aim to be better.

In this case LEAPS is Lothian Equal Access Programme.  It is designed to support those young people who aspire to university but who are traditionally under represented in universities.

BGEd is Broad General Education.  In secondary schools it means students in First, Second and Third Year.  It also applies to those at primary school.
