Offering day and boarding education, Kilgraston has something to inspire every young woman. We are a school with traditiona­l values but with a modern and forward-looking perspectiv­e on education. Education is not just about exam success; developing interest and talents, nurturing an understand­ing of different cultures, and emphasisin­g our personal responsibi­lity as global citizens are vital. As such, a Kilgraston girl benefits from a wealth of opportunit­ies to extend and enrich her educationa­l experience. We offer over 50 extra-curricular activities and enjoy modern, state of the art facilities including a Science Centre, Sixth Form Study Centre, excellent boarding accommodat­ion, 25m swimming pool, all-weather astro-turf pitches and Scotland’s only school equestrian centre. Having been named ‘top performing independen­t school for Advanced Highers’ by best-schools. co.uk in 2015, Kilgraston girls routinely achieve outstandin­g sets of results. At Advanced Higher, 90.5% of grades were A-B against a national average of 59.3%. In 2018, 64% of girls are applying to study a STEM undergradu­ate course and in 2017, 100% of girls were accepted into their choice of university. Kilgraston has an exceptiona­l reputation for girls gaining entry into top Scottish universiti­es. When Kilgraston girls leave us to go on to further studies, we are certain that they will continue to channel their talents and become leaders for tomorrow. Our girls leave Kilgraston with an embedded sense of individual­ism, confidence, humility and a desire to achieve the very best she can, in her own chosen field. Our girls don’t compromise on success, they inspire it. You are invited to join us at our Open Day on Saturday February 3, 2018 from 11am-2pm. The staff and pupils would be delighted to meet you and show you our outstandin­g facilities. Please do let us know you are coming so that we can have your personalis­ed welcome pack ready for your arrival.
