33 Kirklee Road , Glasgow G12 0SW

While academic study is clearly the main purpose of the school, we also encourage all our pupils to develop a wide range of additional interests, so that we provide a rounded and complete education. Most importantly, this takes place in a friendly and caring environment, and the small sizes of our classes and activity groups mean that each boy’s and girl’s aptitudes and talents are readily identified and developed.

Ages 3- 18
