School's out again for St Ninian's students

25 per cent of teaching staff absent

Twenty five per cent of teaching and support staff at St Ninian's High School are currently absent.

It's led to year groups being asked to stay at home this week.

Year 9 pupils, who were off today, are also being asked to stay away tomorrow and on Friday.

Students in Year 10 are being told not to come to school on Wednesday or Thursday.

The headteacher says the decision has not been taken lightly but with all contingencies 'fully utilised' he has 'little option'.

Mr Coole says the situation will be assessed each day and if things improve further changes could be made.
