About Brechin High School
Brechin High School is a six-year, non-denominational, comprehensive secondary school, with a current roll of 500 students (predicted to rise to 560 over the next two years) and 49 teaching staff, serving the town of Brechin and the surrounding rural district. The catchment area is large. The cluster primaries are: Andover, Edzell, Maisondieu and Stracathro. In addition to these primary schools, some pupils who attend St Margaret’s, Friockheim, Tannadice and Aberlemno primary schools may also live within the catchment area for Brechin High School.
On February 17th 2016 Brechin High School entered the new Brechin Community Campus and moved onto the next stage in what has been a very long (590 years) and notable history. There are few schools in Scotland with as rich and distinguished a history as Brechin High School. It is a long way from our beginnings as a Cathedral School to where we are today in very modern, forward thinking premises. The design of the community campus encourages innovative approaches to learning and teaching and community engagement. However, as we know, the success of a school relies on far more than an attractive building. As Head Teacher, I continue to be convinced that the combination of an ambitious staff, hardworking pupils and supportive parents in Brechin provide the basis for continuing improvements on all levels. We are an ambitious school; ambitious to see every member of our school community achieve above his/her potential. There have been encouraging signs of improvements in attainment and we believe these are only a precursor for further success to come. With the new community campus and the construction of a training centre on site, with training delivered by local, partner businesses, Brechin is certainly an exciting place to be.
Yours,
Archie Bathgate
Head Teacher
