THE SCHOOL
Clifton Hall School is an Independent Scottish Nursery, Primary and Secondary school for children between the ages of three and eighteen where:
• the high ratio of staff to pupils enables the children to be treated as individuals so that every one is challenged and encouraged to give of their best within a caring environment.
• in spacious and attractive surroundings, children are encouraged to pursue a wide range of activities to identify and develop their particular interests and talents.
• self-esteem, consideration and respect for others develops through the work of the school in active partnership with parents.
• children leave the school better equipped socially and educationally to meet the challenges of the wider world.
The principal catchment areas of the school are Edinburgh and the Lothians. Further information can be found at http://www.cliftonhall.org.uk
The school is a fully independent all-through day school and is a member of the Scottish Council for Independent Schools (SCIS), with around 400 pupils, having two nursery years, seven ‘single class’ primary years and six ‘double form’ secondary years. Class sizes will not exceed twenty four and most exam stage classes are significantly smaller in size. The school broadly follows the 3-18 Curriculum for Excellence guidelines.
