The science department offer courses in biology, chemistry and physics. All S1/2 pupils complete a mixed science course. Towards the end of S2, pupils may choose one or more sciences when they personalise their timetables. 

The science department have a science club each week with lots of fun experiments. On top of this we are competing in numerous science/engineering challenges for school children across Scotland and beyond. More details on such activities are available from any science teacher.

The links on the right provide more information about each course and the exciting careers a qualification in science can open up ( not just a science teacher ! )

Please come up to the department if you have any questions about courses, careers and qualifications.
