Learning & Teaching

In Peebles High School we recognise that the curriculum is not only 'what' students learn but also 'how' they learn. We place an emphasis on student choice and flexibility to ensure they achieve success in the fields most relevant to their future. Through their experiences our students acquire the full range of transferable skills and abilities relevant to growing, living and working in the twenty-first century.
We offer the full range of National Qualifications found in a modern Scottish secondary school. In addition, we recognise the importance of developing employability skills and offer an extensive range of Skills for Work courses, including Construction Crafts, Hairdressing, Engineering Skills and Early Education and Childcare. Other recent provision includes Microsoft Academy courses.
