Through social studies, children and young people develop their understanding of the world by learning about other people, societies, their beliefs and values.

Our Social Studies programmes and courses cover:

People, past events and societies
People, place and environment
People in society, economy and business

Through Social Studies, children develop their understanding of the world by learning about other people and their values, in different times, places and circumstances.  They also develop their understanding of their environment and how it has been shaped. Educational visits may be arranged to places of interest, such as Vikingar, Scotland Street School, Bannockburn and Amazonia.  Members of the local community and business partners are invited into school to add practical and personal contributions and put learning in the context of real life and work.  We also offer opportunities for all pupils to participate in enterprise activities and to develop the skills of enterprise.
