Open Day 2024 2 November

Our Open Day is the perfect opportunity for prospective pupils and their families to tour the School, meet our teachers and pupils, and learn more about what makes Kelvinside Academy unique.

Experience KA

We all know by now that not all young people learn the same way. What’s already happening at Kelvinside Academy is an example of what can be possible when teaching is more centred around skills and practical experience.

Successful young adults need to be creative, collaborative researchers who can apply knowledge to solving problems that will increase business and commercial success.

Pupils need a flexible learning environment where they can develop the skills needed to become experts, innovators and entrepreneurs.

As the power, scope, and ease of using AI improves with every passing week; it would be educational malpractice to ignore what this means for your children and their employability.

The world of work has changed immeasurably and schools must break the cycle of laser focus on grades and university alone and embrace diversification and new methods that better prepare young people for what comes next – be it industry, entrepreneurship, technology, sport, music, or wherever they excel.
