Hutchesons' Educational Trust  Hutchesons' Educational Trust 21 Beaton Road

Pupils flow through the many rooms and corridors at Hutchesons' during the school day, filling them with life and energy.Their eagerness and purposefulness is quickly apparent and visitors will find themselves in the midst of a dynamic and diverse community of girls and boys from a wide range of backgrounds, all with their own distinctive personal qualities, enthusiasms and interests.Hutchesons' pupils are encouraged to fully explore their academic interests. In doing so, they achieve some of the very best exam results in Scotland, although we believe that meaningful learning continues far beyond those results.From Primary 1 to Secondary 6, pupils are immersed in a profound and challenging academic experience, which helps them to better understand themselves and the world around, through the subjects they study. The intellectual breadth of an education at Hutchesons' helps all our pupils to flourish and develop into versatile young adults with open and enquiring minds.Engaging the critical and creative powers of our pupils and teaching them how to investigate, connect, and express ideas means that, for many, the pursuit of knowledge will be a source of lifelong pleasure and fulfilment. Our pupils quickly find out what it means to be part of a learning culture. They will acquire a self-confidence that is balanced by respect for the abilities of others. Tolerance, understanding and integrity are seen as important features of a community that is built on order and purpose.Hutchesons' has always accepted pupils from a wide range of social backgrounds and it is still the case that coming to school here depends first on academic prowess and a desire to work hard, and second on the ability to pay the fees. The school has always reached out to Glasgow's brightest and best children, whatever their background, and every year makes it possible for many to attend on full bursaries.
