Welcome to Westmuir High School

I would like to welcome you to Westmuir High School.  This website contains a range of information that you might find helpful.  Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you need more information. 

Westmuir High School is a small SEBN secondary school. All staff are qualified in managing challenging behaviours of young people.  Westmuir provides education for young people who require support to engage in learning and, with this support, can experience a high quality broad general education and national qualifications in the senior phase of secondary education.

As a comprehensive co-educational school, Westmuir High aims to develop the potential of every young person.  We offer a broad education to young people in small class sizes (maximum class size of 6).

Within a safe, caring and supportive learning environment, we aim to encourage each young person to respect themselves and others.  This provides the foundation for engagement in learning and indeed in taking pathways to successful and sustained positions in the world of work.

We work very closely with parents and carers of young people.  Through regular telephone calls, letters and texts we aim to fully involve parents and carers in the life of the school. 

At all times we would encourage parents, carers and associated professionals to work closely with us to ensure all young people attending Westmuir achieve, attain national qualifications and develop fully, their employability skills.
