The Scots Advantage


Printer-friendly version

The Scots School Albury is an outstanding educational choice within Albury Wodonga and the wider region it serves, and has been the first choice in education for generations of rural and regional families.

Chapel Hall

Our centrally located campus offers a wide range of boarding and day facilities for students from pre-school and primary right through to HSC.

As a progressive, co-educational school, Scots offers a diverse and challenging academic, cultural and sporting curriculum, which is further supported by an extensive extra curricular program, and being a non-selective school, students are admitted at all levels of ability.

Within easy travelling distance for families in Southern New South Wales and North Eastern Victoria, Scots offers a standard of education and facilities comparable to capital city independent schools, with the additional advantages of life in a regional community ... and it's closer to home.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE
Scots is widely recognised as a school which provides quality education in a stimulating environment where learning and achievement are promoted through:

  • many diverse academic opportunities which challenge students to realise their intellectual potential
  • a variety of learning support programs that cater for and support students with special needs, both remedial and extension
  • strong academic rigour as demonstrated by our consistently outstanding Higher School Certificate results
  • the ability to tailor programs to suit students from a wide variety of backgrounds
  • a blend of traditional and modern facilities with up-to-date teaching equipment
  • experienced, professional dedicated and dynamic teachers
  • an appreciation of the importance of the traditional roles of schooling within the modern context
  • a disciplined, caring and safe learning environment.

Because of this The Scots School Albury enjoys a fine reputation for academic excellence, with students consistently being ranked among the top 10% in the State of New South Wales. In newspaper listings (based on Order of Merit Awards), Scots is recognised as the premier school in the region and in the top group of schools in NSW.

Although Scots has non-selective entry, the NSW HSC results of our students consistently show excellence and depth, both in the number of high achievers and in the great number of those scoring very solid results.  Our academic strengths are broad: Humanities, Mathematics, Sciences and the Arts all enjoy prominent and widespread success.
