We are one of the largest schools in Edinburgh with a roll of over 1300 pupils and 130 staff. This provides us with the opportunity to provide a wide range of curricular, interdisciplinary and extracurricular activities that meet the needs of all of our pupils. We also provide opportunities for personal achievement and support pupils to develop skills for learning, work and life.

The work of the school is supported by an active Parent Council and Parent Teachers Association.
