The purpose of our national curriculum in Scotland is to enable each and every young person to be a successful learner, a confident individual, a responsible citizen and an effective contributor. In Blairgowrie High School we make every effort to offer all of our pupils opportunities that develop these qualities and enable them to progress beyond school to their chosen career or extend their learning to their choice of course at college or university.
Our school vision – learning together today to shape the world of tomorrow – was composed and voted on by all in our school community. Working together with parents, carers, employers and other agencies in the community we aim to provide a positive learning environment that will enable our young people to achieve success.
Blairgowrie High School covers the Eastern Perthshire area. To the West we extend almost to Dunkeld; to the North our area stretches upto Glenshee past the Spittal, to the border with Aberdeenshire Council; to the East our area extends to the Angus border and finally to the South-East, Tullybaccart – the highest point on the road between Coupar Angus and Dundee – is our boundary with Dundee Council.
Our associated Primary schools are Alyth Primary School, Burrelton Primary School, Coupar Angus Primary School, Glendelvine Primary School, Newhill Primary School, Kettins Primary School, Kirkmichael Primary School, Meigle Primary School, Rattray Primary School and St Stephen’s RC Primary School.
Our values are summarised in our school motto ASPIRE.
