Wallace High School of Sport

Wallace High has 5 different Schools of Sport (Basketball, Rugby, Football, Swimming and Dance) and you will have to complete trials to qualify to get into the Schools of Sport. You can only be in School of Sport from S1 to S3.


If you are successful, you will do your sport 3-5 periods a week. That means you will be missing classes so will have a catch up session once a week. It will always be a lunchtime. This may put a lot of people off but, to be honest, it’s not as hard as it seems. The trial process is not very lengthy, there are two trials in total -The semi-finals and the finals.

I’m in the School of Swimming and I go twice a week. I have chosen to attend my music class instead. This is an option for all pupils. Every time I go I learn something new about swimming, the coaches are great and very supportive but they will make you work hard on your sport.
