(NQ means SQA National Qualification).

S1-S3

Pupils in S1 to S3 follow a broad general educationin the following areas:

Expressive Arts Health & Wellbeing Languages Mathematics
Religious & Moral Sciences Social Studies Technologies

This builds on the learning they have done at primary and allows for pupils to gain a deeper understanding of different subjects. Literacy, Numeracy and Health & Wellbeing continue to beat the core of what pupils learn. We also place a strong emphasis on developing skills for learning, life and work throughout all our courses, including a number of inter-disciplinary experiences in all year groups.Pupils in S3 will be able to specialise in areas that interest them most.

S4 S6

As pupils move into S4 they will select the subjects they wish to study for S4-S6 that will lead to qualifications. Pupils will select subjects based on their likes, chosen career paths and ability, they, and you, will be supported to make the appropriate choices
