Dear 6th year Students, Now that the decision has been made about Leaving Certificate 2020, it is time to concentrate on what is next for you. We advise you to use the time you have now to really research well the options that are available to you, taking time to consider carefully the pathway you have in mind. Please have a look at last weeks' post about the CAO Change of Mind and look at the 'How the CAO works' clip that was attached. Refer to your CAO handbook too. If you have any questions about the CAO lists or are unsure about any application process or how things work, or if you have any worries or concerns please contact us. We will do our best to support you through this time. Meanwhile take care, Kind regards, Ms. McGee, Ms. Travers, Mr. Breslin grainnemcgee@scoilmhuireclane.ie gwentravers@scoilmhuireclane.ie patrickbreslin@scoilmhuireclane.ie

Dear Parent/Guardian, We hope you all has had an opportunity to activate your Progresso(Cloud School) account to enable you to access your student's Summer Report. Please read the attached document that will explain the report. The instructions sent to you yesterday will guide you to accessing the reports. The reports will be generated on a phased basis as mentioned yesterday, beginning with 1st Years. A few people has requested an alteration to their details. I must ask you to call the school office between 9.30am & 12noon to log such requests. These updates may not occur immediately. However, all requests will be updated prior to the new school year. Where we had not had an email for your family & received your email today, you will receive details of your accounts on Monday. We would like to thank our Assessment Committee for their commitment, knowledge and guidance in developing these new reports. A special word of thanks must be extended to Mr Herring for his ongoing trojan work and commitment in bringing the whole platform around these reports to fruition. It is time for him to take a break now, to this extent we are asking that you do not email Mr Herring directly until we return to school in August. I hope you all have an enjoyable and safe summer! Kind regards, JP Cahillane

The Minister of Education and Skills has announced that the Leaving Certificate 2020 is postponed and students are being offered a system of Calculated Grades, with State Certification. They will also have the opportunity to sit the exams at a later stage when it is safer to do so. We know that this is an extremely anxious time for our students, their parents/guardians & our teachers, this is being felt across our school community. Please allow yourself time for this unprecedented departure to sink in. It is only natural to be concerned about the uncertainty of this enforced approach and the implications for your future. Please take time to read the relevant information. attached or using the links below. We will be in contact early next week when we have had time to digest and reflect on the new arrangements for Leaving Cert 2020. We will try to ease your concerns and answer your questions. All the support structures across our school community will continue to be available to you. Please appreciate that it is not fair to contact your subject teachers until further notice using email or other mediums. Take care of yourselves and each other. Keep safe, Mr Nolan www.education.ie/en/Press-Events/Press-Releases/2020-press-releases/PR20-05-08.html www.gov.ie/en/publication/2f07eb-leaving-cert-2020-information/#information-for-leaving-cert-students www.education.ie/en/Learners/Information/State-Examinations/a-guide-to-calculated-grades-for-leaving-certificate-students-2020.pdf

Student Support & Scheduling Lessons

We hope this message finds your family well during these extraordinary times. We want to thank you all for the outstanding amount of feedback we received from yourselves to our recent initiative to support our students . Namely our teachers informing you where your student had not engaged in their class since Easter. This feedback amplified many of the obstacles students are encountering. We are taking all this data into consideration as we continue to plan for the remainder of this school year. Our primary goal was to establish how we may be able to assist you. Our Year Heads are currently working to progress this initiative. Much of the feedback received is of a general nature and we will address this through notifications similar to this one. Where the feedback is more of a personal nature we will continue to communication with you using the "personal notifications" function or through a phone call to try to resolve the issues raised. A subject that was repeatedly raised is that of the scheduling of lessons. We have attached a document to explain the obstacles associated with this matter. We have also explained the "bullying & child protection issue". We appreciate all the efforts that are being made to help your student(s) to engage with Remote Learning. Please use the “Parent Note” facility on this App to communicate with us. Please see the assessment arrangements for further student support options. Thank you for your ongoing support. Take care of yourselves.
