Morrison’s Academy is an all-through day school for boys and girls age 2-18. Pupils are invited to join at any age however, our key entry points are Nursery, Primary One, Primary Six and Secondary One.
Most children will join the school at the start of session in August, however, occasionally there are spaces in the required year groups and pupils can join mid-session.
Our class sizes are small by design, which enables a personalised learning experience for your child. We actively encourage our pupils to strive for the highest and broaden their horizons to all of life’s possibilities.
Our pupils excel in the Scottish examination system. They can choose from a broad range of subjects combined with an extensive choice of co-curricular activities, trips and exchanges which ensure a broad educational experience.
Our motto – Ad Summa Tendendum (striving for the highest) – sets the tone for all we do.
