• I treat myself with respect.

Over the next few months, your local authority is planning to ask all pupils in P5 to S6 to take part in a survey about their health and wellbeing. The findings will help your local authority to understand the needs, strengths and possible concerns of children and young people, which will help plan future improvements to local services. Please look out for a letter which you should shortly be receiving that will provide you with more detailed information about the Census, and provides you with the opportunity to let us know if you don’t wish your child to take part.

The letter mentioned is attached below in a range of languages. Please look out for a paper copy which will be sent home this week. If you would like a paper copy of any of these translated letters, please contact the school office.
