ST MODAN’S HIGH
EDUCATION AWARDS
St Modan’s is proud to have been shortlisted as Scottish Education Awards finalist in the category of Employability and Creativity.
The school has been involved in some innovative approaches to ensuring young people are equipped with the skills, knowledge and attitudes required to be successful beyond school. Young people are prepared better than ever before for employability through a creative suite of courses and approaches across a variety of curricular areas.
This session St Modan’s worked in partnership with Historic Environment Scotland, WSP and Forth Valley College among others. In addition the school runs classes to prepare young people specifically for employment as apprentices and offers accredited courses in construction, retail, early education, hospitality and much more.
The great work done to develop the young workforce was recognised nationally by shortlisting St Modan’s to be one of only three finalists for this prestigious award.
VALEDICTORY DINNER
The Valedictory Dinner was an evening mixed with pleasure, pride and sadness as S6 leavers arrived at the Stirling Court Hotel on Tuesday, June 11. The school would like to wish all leavers every success as they embark on an exciting new chapter in their lives.
PTP
Enormous thanks to the PTP (Parent Teacher Partnership) for all their support this session. The AGM took place last week where the PTP donated £1000 to the School Farm project and £250 to Pupil Support.
