About Fairview International School, Bridge of Allan

Fairview International School aims to be one of Scotland’s leading schools to offer the exclusive International Baccalaureate (IB) education. While new to the UK, Fairview International School comes with a rich heritage of providing inspirational learning to students for over forty years.  We are six schools, over 300 teachers and a body of 3000 students. That’s the Fairview family; with further plans to continue to expand the Fairview family within UK and globally.

Academically, Fairview have consistently achieved for the last 5 years an average IB Diploma Programme score of 36. Furthermore, by affiliation, Fairview is also an authorised IB teacher-training centre; our University College Fairview (UCF) runs the Bachelor of Education, the Professional Graduate Diploma in Education (PGDE) for those seeking a new career in teaching and the Masters in Education for new and existing teachers. The PGDE is recognised by both UK National Academic Recognition Information Centre (UK NARIC) and the General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS). It is also one of the few institutions globally, not only certified to train IB teachers, but is directly attached to IB World schools offering the advantage of teachers gaining academic qualifications whilst teaching without any gaps in their career.

Offering guidance and stewardship to the strategic direction of Fairview Global is its Council of Governors, which includes 3 former Vice-Chancellors and the former Director General Emeritus of the IB Organisation.

Fairview Bridge of Allan is situated in central Scotland in the old spa town of Bridge of Allan. Strategically placed in a beautiful woodland setting, it commands wonderful views towards the Scottish Highlands.

With a direct connection to our family of sister school’s globally we are able to share best practices and learning journeys between the schools, staff and senior leaders instantly connecting us with our global faculty; something no other school in Central Scotland can offer.

We are proud to be Scotland’s first authorised International Baccalaureate (IB) continuum School offering an uninterrupted passage through a comprehensive educational programme from 5 -18 years that includes the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP) and the Diploma Programme (DP).

Our absolute focus is on developing motivated, well-rounded students  with a real passion for learning and insatiable thirst for knowledge. We adopt a holistic and transformative approach to education, which means our students are truly invested and take responsibility for their own learning to become independent learners.

Success is not only measured on academic achievement, but on the individuals they become. Fairview students are inquisitive, resilient, confident young people who leave us with the skills to succeed in life whatever that might hold.

We prepare students to be fully rounded leaders and innovators in today's global society. As a result, they are empowered not only to succeed academically, but to develop a true sense of themselves in preparation for whatever their future holds.

We invite you to join us to be part of our exciting journey and look forward to welcoming you into our family.
