The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Dunblane High School on being named Scottish State Secondary School of the Year by TheSunday Times, which is the second time that it has won the award; recognises that a key part of the school’s success is the number of young people reaching positive destinations after school, including further education, vocational courses, modern apprenticeships, work-based training and employment; notes that in 2018, 92% of students left the school equipped with five or more National 5s, while 76% left with five or more Highers and 27% gained two or more Advanced Highers; commends the teachers and pupils at the school on this outstanding achievement; welcomes its atmosphere of excellence and support for hard work and dedication; believes this award to be well deserved by the school and acknowledges this to be a positive reflection of the world-class education provided in Scotland, and wishes Dunblane High School, its teachers and students, continued success.
