Lomond really is the school of ‘choice’

With a wide range of subjects on offer, through either traditional SQA qualifications or one of two International Baccalaureate programmes, Lomond really is the school of ‘choice’ for families looking for a quality education in the West of Scotland.

With the added convenience of a school bus for weekly boarders, we offer families in the West of Scotland a boarding school option close to home, with a welcoming environment and excellent pastoral care for children aged 9 to 18.

As a non-selective school, our academic results are exceptionally high, and we believe that this is because we help our pupils to find a pathway which suits their individual needs, thus allowing them to get the very best from their education. In S5 and S6 pupils have the option of three pathways: SQA Highers and Advanced Highers, the IB Diploma Programme or the IB Career-related Programme with specialisation through an HNC in Business. This choice is unrivalled in Scotland and ensures that we have the right pathway for all.

We believe that balance is what drives happiness and success and we aim to deliver a learning experience which is engaging and fun, giving every child the tools they need to pursue a successful life beyond school. Our young people enjoy an enhanced curriculum which provides enrichment and experiences beyond the classroom. From extra-curricular activities to life changing trips, coming to Lomond School opens the door to a range of opportunities which help to develop confidence, respect and an outward looking approach, all of which will serve our young people well now, and in the future.

Our boarding house, Burnbrae, is a modern purpose-built facility, separate to the main school campus. With up to 60 boarders, the house is small enough to truly provide a family feel and being home to boys and girls provides a unique opportunity for siblings to live together in the same house. All our pupils are respected and treated as individuals and our staff actively support their personal, social and educational development. To find out more about boarding at Lomond School, book to meet our Registrar in Oban on Saturday 26 February 2022.
