“The wide-ranging programme of clubs enables many young people at all stages to learn more about themselves and to develop new skills and interests. A notable number are becoming better at coping with unfamiliar situations, for example, through residential excursions. Most young people in S6 are developing their leadership skills and contribute well to the school community. The school is planning further work to increase the motivation, confidence and resilience of young people in the senior school.”
