Welcome to Firrhill High School
Excellence for all, excellence by all.
I would like to welcome you to the Firrhill High School web-site.
Here you will find information on our school aims and values, our educational provision in its widest sense and our many achievements.
Every school year brings with it the optimism of a fresh start, the prospect of new and exciting challenges and the opportunity to apply ourselves to be the very best we can be. I am sure that this year will be no different in those respects and, as we always do, we will challenge ourselves to be even better than we were before.
As a twice-accredited unicef Gold Rights Respecting School we place children’s rights and pupil welfare at the centre of our work. The voice of pupils is important and the partnership working between pupils and staff is a hallmark of our school community. Tolerance, diversity, friendliness and welcoming all to our school have long been features of Firrhill and these qualities have been amplified, strengthened and deeply embedded though our rights-based work.
You will find links here to many resources to support both pupils and parents. I would particularly direct you to our ‘Firrhill in Focus’ padlet which is an excellent resource for you to find information on all we have to offer. I hope you find these resources helpful – please let us know.
Best Wishes
Graham Hamilton – Headteacher
