School Description

Loretto is committed to supporting your child to create their exceptional life, whatever that means for them. As Scotland’s oldest boarding school, they deliver a rounded curriculum in all of the ways you might expect – through a diverse curriculum, expansive extracurricular programme, and outstanding facilities.

However, what sets Loretto apart is their close-knit community. Loretto is a place where relationships between staff, pupils, and parents flourish, where every child is known and nurtured, and where your child will find both the inspiration and encouragement they need to discover their unique talents and passions.

Small class sizes in both Junior and Senior School ensure the delivery of an exceptional education, enabling truly personalised learning and support. In Senior School, the British examination system of GCSEs, A Levels, and BTECs is followed, with cohorts consistently achieving excellent results. The foundations for a lifetime of success are laid at Loretto, with each individual moving on to exciting and varied pathways after school.

With its superb location on Scotland's Golf Coast, Loretto also has a strong tradition of top-level golf. Expert PGA coaches deliver three distinct training programmes within outstanding facilities located on campus. The Loretto Golf Academy continues to set the standard for excellence in golf education, having achieved 13 national titles and supporting dozens of aspiring golfers further their careers at US colleges and UK universities.

At Loretto, pupils are happy, safe, and able to achieve their potential. The school encourages independent, curious, and creative thinkers to flourish, ready to take on an ever-changing world. Loretto is best experienced in person. Contact admissions@loretto.com to arrange your visit.
