Discover What Sets Glenalmond College Apart
Glenalmond College is an extraordinary place to learn. From the first glimpse of the school buildings through the trees as you drive up Front Avenue, visiting families get a sense of what sets Glenalmond apart and when they then speak with staff and pupils, they start to really understand why this is an exceptional place to learn.
Just an hour from Edinburgh Airport, Glenalmond has earned an excellent reputation for academic success and offers A-levels and GCSEs and a wide range of subjects. Most of the teaching staff live on the school’s stunning campus and they are totally committed to ensuring the potential of each child is reached in full. With just 350 pupils, class sizes are reassuringly small and every child is known individually. With 300 acres of grounds in a stunning location at the Gateway to the Scottish Highlands, the list of activities for pupils to enjoy is long - from kayaking and Munro-bagging to rifle shooting, bushcraft, archery, fishing, horse-riding and many more. The indoor Golf Hub, complete with simulation screens, is a popular indoor alternative to our 100 year old James Braid-designed nine-hole golf course.
