A-levels

A small number of Scottish schools offer A-levels, the majority of which are independent schools, such as Fettes College, Merchiston Castle School and Edinburgh Academy. This can mean that the transition between Scottish and English schools becomes easier for relocating families. For further information on the A-level courses offered, contact the schools directly or visit their websites.

Should you decide to study for Scottish qualifications towards entry to an English University, Advanced Highers are of the necessary level for the shorter three year English degree system.
