Overview

Kilgraston is Scotland’s leading independent boarding and day school catering for 340 girls from 2½ to 18 years. It is located in 56 acres of stunning parkland in Bridge of Earn, three miles from the centre of Perth and less than an hour’s drive from Edinburgh. The school has an outstanding record of academic achievement and is often one of the top schools in Scotland for Highers and Advanced Highers.

Kilgraston encourages personality and uniqueness and is renowned for its warm and friendly atmosphere. During their time at Kilgraston the girls can participate in a very wide range of social, sporting and outdoor pursuits and also take part in many extra-curricular activities. The girls are encouraged to develop self-confidence, social skills, and friendships and to nurture their interests, whether through academia, sporting success or involvement in the arts. Kilgraston is member of the International Network of Sacred Heart Schools and warmly welcomes pupils from all Christian denominations and other religious persuasions.

The school boasts a superb range of facilities including a 25m indoor swimming pool and a sports hall with a climbing wall and fitness suite. Recently, an all weather astro-turf was built adding to the already extensive grounds which incorporate nine floodlit all-weather courts, playing fields and an athletics track. Kilgraston is the only school in Scotland with an Equestrian Centre, incorporating a new 60m by 40m floodlit arena.
