New School Update
New Boroughmuir High School
Following recent media coverage of possible construction delays to the new school, I thought it was important to update you on the current position.
The contractors have provided a programme to the Council that indicates that work on the new school will finish in December allowing us to move in January. However, the Council’s project team have some concerns that this
is achievable and are monitoring progress on a regular basis.
The situation will be reviewed in mid-October and a decision taken then on whether to proceed with the January opening or postpone the move to a later date. As soon as any decision is taken I will let you know.
Having visited the site yesterday I am confident that the new building will provide an incredible learning and teaching environment for all our pupils and I am looking forward to us moving in.

Practical Woodworking Showcase
Some of our senior pupils have been working very hard making toolboxes as part of their
construction unit in Practical Woodwork. The course enables pupils to gain skills in woodworking techniques and in measuring and marking out timber sections and sheet materials. It develops safe working practices in workshop environments, fosters practical creativity and problem-solving skills, and increases awareness of sustainability issues within a practical context. The standard of work produced so far has been outstanding! I wonder if you can spot the next project in the background?
