Kids – be safe online
The Scottish Government has just published a revised and updated plan to help protect children and young people online. The refreshed plan will help children and young people develop the skills they need to stay safe on the internet and support parents and carers to be more aware of the potential risks that their children face online. There’s lots of useful information and you can find it here https://news.gov.scot/news/protecting-children-online-1

CV workshops – volunteers needed
Broughton High School runs workshops on CV writing and interview practice in May each year for a number of S4 pupils.
These will be happening on Thursday 11th May between 10am and 1pm and the school is looking for parents to volunteer to come in and help students develop their employability skills.
Additionally, between Monday 29 May and Friday 2 June, the school is trying to organise a number of different work visits for pupils, giving them the opportunity to visit a local workplace, in small groups of two or three, and help for an hour.
The aim is to increase their confidence and give them an additional item for their CV.
Please contact Aletta Ritchie at clerk.bhspc@broughtonhighpc.org if you can volunteer on 11th May or provide a work visit.
