Are you looking for a school that dares to be different? At Lomond School, we don’t follow trends – we set them. For almost 50 years, we’ve been reimagining what education can be: pioneering co-educational boarding when others held back, sailing as part of the curriculum, becoming the first school in Europe to accept Bitcoin, and now preparing to bring blockchain into our curriculum. This is a school for young people who want more than the conventional – who are ready to embrace challenge, innovation, and opportunity. If you want your child to stand out, not fit in, Lomond School is where their future begins.
We don’t just prepare our students for the future – we empower them to shape it. We combine forward-thinking skills essential for success in the 21st century with timeless values that nurture responsible, confident, and compassionate global citizens.
Nestled in the charming town of Helensburgh, Scotland, on the edge of the world-famous Loch Lomond and only 30 minutes from Glasgow Airport, Lomond School offers the perfect environment for a rounded education. Here, academic excellence meets adventure, inspiring students to aim high and achieve their very best – both inside and outside the classroom.
From the earliest years, students develop a love of learning that stays with them for life. By Senior 5, they embark on the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) or the International Baccalaureate Career-related Programme (IBCP), with pathways including an HNC in Business or Engineering. Our students consistently achieve results well above the global average, with IB points averaging 34 since we introduced this globally renowned programme.
Boarding life at Burnbrae, our co-educational house, is at the heart of our vibrant community. With its family-like atmosphere, superb facilities, and easy access to the spectacular Scottish outdoors. Burnbrae offers students opportunities to grow, thrive, and build lifelong friendships in a truly international environment.
We are especially proud to have been awarded an ‘excellent’ rating by the Care Inspectorate, confirming Lomond School as a leader in outstanding care and education.
Consider Lomond School – dare to be different.
