Parents are being warned that kids may have to return to home learning due to teacher absences.
Staff shortages caused by the rising number of Covid cases have hit several schools across the region in recent weeks, including Kirkcudbright Academy, Kells Primary and Dalry.
Now, the council’s director of education Gillian Brydson has written to parents warning them that there could be occasions when children have to return to home learning, less than a month after the need to wear face coverings in classes ended.
