    Education Services Alva Academy Academy Avenue, Alva FK12 5FE Tel. 01259 452322 Direct Mrs M Brown contact: Depute Headteacher Telephone: 01259 452322 Email: [email protected] Our ref: MB/JB Date: 3rd February 2021 Dear Parents and Carers, In my letter of 2nd November 2020, I stated that we planned to hold an online event where you would be able to hear from school staff and pupils about life at the school and the arrangements for this year’s transition before the Christmas holidays. Unfortunately, like many other schools across the country, we faced an ever changing picture during the month of December, and were unable to hold the event as planned. We will now be holding two parent events on Wednesday 10th February 2021. These will be held via Google Classroom, and as the capacity for any meeting is 100, we will be holding two events. The first is at 11am and is for parents/carers of children who attend Menstrie, Strathdevon, Coalsnaughton and Muckhart Primary Schools. The second is at 11.45am and is for parents/carers of pupils attending Alva and Tillicoultry Primary Schools. Given the capacity of the meeting is 100, can I ask that families log in on one device only please? It is our intention to record these meetings and have these recordings available within the P7 Transition Classroom which your child will be invited to join before the meeting. We will not share a meeting code with parents for this meeting as the link for joining is at the top of the stream within the Google Classroom.

  • School Brochure 2016/17
    ALVA ACADEMY School Brochure 2016/17 Welcome to Alva Academy We recognise the importance that parents place on the education of their children. Joining a new school is an exciting time for everyone, a time of new opportunities, new experiences and new ways of doing things. With that in mind, this booklet has been written to give you and your child information about Alva Academy and also an indication of our aspirations and unique character. One of the many things we have in common with parents is a desire to do the very best for the young people in our care. Like you, we want them to be ready to enjoy the opportunities life offers and to be equipped to meet the complex challenges of the 21st century. Education to us means ‘bringing out and developing someone’s potential’ and also ‘developing their character and mental abilities.’ We know this means our young people need to develop a wide range of knowledge, skills and attributes. Here at Alva Academy we do all in our power to enable them to make and sustain high levels of progress, whilst ensuring that their social and moral developments are secure; so they know how to behave and deal with the issues of right and wrong. We also want our young people to grow and develop emotionally so that they respect and understand themselves and engage fully with other people. To provide the appropriate environment for this to flourish the school strives hard to create an enabling ethos of achievement and inclusion. We understand how important your child’s time with us is in ensuring that they make the most of their abilities.

Over 550 fatalities with close links to the area have been identified so far.
