S.5-S.6

Boroughmuir High School has traditionally had a high percentage of pupils choosing to come back to school after completion of S.4. We view these senior pupils as ambassadors for the school and believe them to be excellent role models for our younger pupils. Due to the high numbers returning it can sometimes be difficult to offer places to pupils applying form outwith the school. Applications for the start of the new academic year are normally assessed in May after our own pupils have completed the course choice process.
