Education Scotland Inspection report

“The school’s vision, which was co-developed with stakeholders, has a strong focus on aspirations for all young people and improving their future life chances. This is captured very well through the school motto #raisethebarr. This vision results in a collective sense of purpose for all staff and young people in the school.”
