Our status as the leading
co-educational day prep school in
Scotland is one of which we are proud and
children and staff alike work hard to
maintain the high standards we achieve
academically, in the arts, music and on
the sports fields.
Most
important, though, is that our pupils
leave us as well-rounded individuals,
ready to play their part as successful
learners, confident individuals,
effective contributors and responsible
citizens in the modern world. To help
achieve this they are encouraged to be
tolerant, kind, helpful, interested and
enthusiastic in all that they undertake
at school and through this they develop
the key to good learning: happiness.
I
hope you will enjoy browsing this website
- I can thoroughly recommend the Events
pages which give a good account of all
that goes on here - and that it will
encourage you to come to see for yourself
what we have on offer.
I
look forward to meeting you.
Best wishes,
Andy

| "Perthshire’s
most popular prep – and the
only private co-ed day school in
the area – is as busy as
ever. Head Andy Rathborne had big
shoes to fill in the wake of Mike
Beale’s 30-year reign, but
he seems to be doing marvellously
and now, in his third year, is
finding his stride, streamlining
and modernising things gently but
surely. He likes to point out
Craigclowan’s credentials as
an eco-school, redeveloping the
kitchen garden and nurturing new
rows of fruit and veg –
there’s even an eco-committee
monitoring the school’s
energy use. The day is bustling
and crammed full of activities
– this is not the sort of
place where everyone scoots off
home at 3.30pm. The children will
still be debating or horse riding
or whizzing down the
school’s very own dry-ski
slope – no surprises that
they have an old girl in the
British under-18 ski team.
Craigclowan produces great
results at Common Entrance and
pupils tend to head primarily for
Scottish public schools rather
than those south of the border." |
