We invite you to view our academic curriculum guides, which detail the curriculum for each academic department and can be easily accessed and downloaded from this page. These guides showcase the educational journey at different stages within the school. 

Remove, S1 and S2 Curriculum Departments

In Remove (P7), S1 and S2 we offer a broad and balanced curriculum based on a solid academic foundation across a wide range of subjects that is combined with opportunities to learn, exercise problem-solving and hone interpersonal skills. We reinforce the value of curiosity to support girls to feel empowered and confident to find personal strength and motivation in their learning experience. Through this, girls are given the chance to understand their interests and strengths before making personal subject choices for S3 and S4.

S3 and S4 Curriculum Departments

At this stage we encourage breadth and balance. Through a range of different subject areas, students develop the skills that will help them become inspired learners, courageous and independent young women and good global citizens.

Sixth Form (S5 and S6) Curriculum Departments

With a focus on breadth, we are pleased that most girls take five subjects in Lower Sixth at Higher Level (Qualifications Scotland), including 'crash' Highers in subjects not studied in S3 and S4. They select from a wide and flexible choice of subjects which caters for individual needs.

In Upper Sixth many girls take at least three Advanced Higher courses or A Level qualifications in certain subjects. The range of courses offered in Lower 6 and Upper 6 is selected in consultation with leading universities and industry employers.
