  • Curriculum for Excellence is Scotland’s response to an ever-more challenging and fast-changing world and workplace. It aims to raise standards and increase ambition. Change, as ambitious and far reaching as this, takes time and as parents of Dalziel pupils, we want to involve you in each development stage.
    Broad General Education is one of the key terms used in Curriculum for Excellence. Each area of the curriculum in Broad General Education is broken down into experiences and outcomes often called Es & Os. The E’s & O’s describe the expectations for learning and progression within each curriculum area.

  • Next week (w/b April 22), you will receive a letter with information about the parents' meeting for the forthcoming trip to Barcelona. You will also receive a parental consent form to fill in. We would be greateful if returns could be made as soon as possible so that insurance forms can be filled in as well as details of any dietary requirements there may be. The meeting will be held in the school canteen or the assembly hall (tbc) on Thursday the 16th May at 4.30 pm when we will discuss the details of the journey,the itinerary for the week and spending money/clothes etc.
    I would ask you to bring passports and Health Insurance Cards (available free of charge on the government website) which will be stored in a secure location till we depart. Obviously if you require the passport prior to our travel date, then you should not bring it on that day.
