Highland Perthshire -

Snr Phase Education

Dear Parent/Carer

Highland Perthshire - Senior Phase Education

Following a decision by the Council’s Lifelong Learning Committee on 27 March 2019, Perth and Kinross Council is considering options for the delivery of senior phase education (S4 – S6) across Highland Perthshire as part of the School Estate Transformation project.

As part of this process the Council would like to gather the views of parents/carers of pupils attending Pitlochry High School and Breadalbane Academy on the options being considered.

The options are;

• Improve condition rating of school and include S5 & S6 at Pitlochry High School to increase occupancy level;

• S4 pupils move to Breadalbane Academy and review use of Pitlochry High School building;

• Highland Perthshire Learning Partnership.

Focus group sessions with parents/carers of children attending both schools will be held at the following times;

 Each focus group will comprise of between 10-12 parents/carers and will involve a presentation on each option following which activities will take place allowing each option to be explored in greater depth.

If you are interested in attending a session please contact the school office at Pitlochry High School or Breadalbane Academy by Monday 3 June 2019.

A briefing pack with further information will be provided in advance of each session to those parents/carers attending.

Yours faithfully
