Schools in Falkirk

About schools in Falkirk

Falkirk lists 28 schools, most of them primary schools. Its five secondary schools are where families compare options once a child finishes primary. Another two schools provide for children with additional needs or alternative provision.

Education Scotland inspects the schools listed here. Its inspectors evaluate a school against the How good is our school quality indicators rather than a single grade, and each page carries the inspection date with a link to the published report. Scotland does not release school-level attainment under an open licence, so these pages show the pupil-census figures its government does publish, among them the school roll and the spread of pupils across the most and least deprived areas. Treat a report as a starting point and visit before you decide.

Common questions about schools in Falkirk

How many schools does Falkirk have?

OfferDay lists 28 schools in Falkirk, including 21 primary schools and five secondary schools.

Who inspects schools in Falkirk?

Schools in Falkirk are inspected by Education Scotland (HM Inspectors). It evaluates a school against the How good is our school quality indicators rather than giving one overall grade, and each school page carries the inspection date with a link to the published report.

How are schools in Falkirk ranked?

OfferDay does not rank schools in Falkirk. Scotland does not publish school-level attainment under an open licence, so there is no fair basis for a league table. Compare schools on their Education Scotland reports and the pupil-census figures its government publishes, and treat any single measure as a starting point rather than a verdict.
