Schools in Glasgow

About schools in Glasgow

Glasgow lists 60 schools, most of them primary schools. Its eight secondary schools are where families compare options once a child finishes primary. One all-through school teaches every age from the early years to school-leaving age on a single site.

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 Glasgow

How many schools does Glasgow have?

OfferDay lists 60 schools in Glasgow, including 42 primary schools and nine special and alternative provision schools.

Who inspects schools in Glasgow?

Schools in Glasgow 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 Glasgow ranked?

OfferDay does not rank schools in Glasgow. 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.
