Year 9 students at St Ninians High School have been asked to stay home tomorrow due to staff absence.
In a letter to parents, the school’s headteacher says they’ve exhausted all other contingencies to manage staff absences, and have to ask Year 9 to work from home.
The letter adds the volume of teacher and support staff currently off work and reduced availability of supply teachers has left them with little option.
It’s hoped the school will be open to all students as normal on Monday.
