Loretto School

Loretto is Scotland’s first boarding school, founded in 1827. Set in a safe, leafy, spacious, 85 acre campus, our school welcomes just over 600 pupils. Being a small school enables us to know every pupil personally, and offer them the opportunity to grow and develop wherever their interests may lie. Our uniquely rounded approach focuses on the development of the whole person, in mind, body, and spirit. We offer a wide range of curricular and extra-curricular activities including comprehensive programmes in Sport and Creative Arts. Our campus integrates extensive playing fields, several Sports Halls, a Steinway Music School, Dance and Drama Studios, a dedicated Science Centre, and the industry-leading Loretto Golf Academy. Ranked in the top 7% of schools in the UK at A Level, we’re delighted that 97% of pupils enter the University of their Choice, such as Oxford, Cambridge, St Andrews, and Durham.
