Hi All,
We have been in school on a daily basis since the school closure has taken place operating within the social distancing guidelines. This has included management , secretarial staff as well as our caretaker and cleaners as per guidelines.
In light of further restrictions now in place , we will be working remotely and going to school only on essential visits as required. All staff will continue to work on a daily basis with our students up until the Easter break.
I am thankful to the combination work of teachers, students and parents in ensuring that this is working well. I would like to reinforce the importance of parents/ guardians supporting our teachers on this initiative which is a learning experience for us all. I am asking all communications between teachers and students and vice versa to be within working hours to reduce stress on everyone at this time .
Thanks once again to everyone for their hard work .
Ní neart go cur le chéile,

TY ECDL students are encouraged to continue their training at home. The recommendation during school time was to complete at least 2 hours at home per week in conjunction with the 4 class contact times. Now the opportunity is to complete this training at home along with diagnostic exams. ECDL teachers have emailed their students so make contact with them if you have any queries. It is important for students to complete this training and be ready to sit exams on return to school.

Over one week in to our enforced school closure and I’d like to thank everyone for their hard work in ensuring that some routine regarding study has been achieved.
Thanks to the teachers for engaging with the students through a variety of online Distance Learning measures . Thanks to the students for taking up the challenge of responding to the work being provided and exercising great self discipline in maintaining a routine of study . Thanks to all parents for supporting this initiative and reinforcing the work being done by our teachers .
We could be in this for a considerable amount of time yet . Therefore, it is important to keep the effort going . However, much more importantly, I hope everyone keeps safe and maintaining hand washing and social distancing.
In this period of social distancing and enforced isolation, never has there been such a strong feeling of closeness and belonging to our families, our communities and our school.
It is a truly difficult time for everyone but let’s help everybody as best we can . If you know of some school family especially in need of support, please let
us know at BCS.
