School Term Dates Consultation
Please find below the link to this consultation exercise. All members are encouraged to make their views known. Please note the in-service date suggested for the 5th of June 2014 is the date of the European Elections and there has been a decision to cause as little disruption to children’s education by having as many in-service days on election days. The LNCT teachers panel will be suggesting moving the February week forward a week to give equal blocks of teaching time between Xmas and Easter. At this time the start date for the SQA exam diet in 2014 is not known.
