We sent out these sheets with top tips for staying at home in week one of the school closure but we thought, now that the novelty of home schooling has worn off, that it might be useful to post them again to help with learning and support at home.
Being At Home During School Closures
We have some new documents for you to support you in your approach to home learning.
Here is a sheet for parents.

City of Edinburgh Council Digital Learner Survey
Parents and Carers,
Please can you fill in the short survey linked below regarding digital access. The council are trying to work out how to proceed with digital learning and a big sample will help provide them with a clearer picture of what is possible.
Speech and Language Therapy Service Update
The Children and Young People’s Speech and Language Therapy Service (SLT) wanted Dalry Primary to pass on to the relevant families the information that they are still operating Monday to Friday but that they are only contactable by phone for relevant families.
For families, a SLT Service Advice Line has been set up. It is staffed Monday-Friday from 10.00-12.00; Tel. 0131 286 5036 / 0131 453 9315.
