Why sit Advanced Highers?
In recent years the UK, and Scotland in particular, has experienced ‘grade inflation’: more school leavers are applying to universities with a greater number of higher grades. This means that competition for places, especially at the most popular universities, has also increased. Some universities (such as Glasgow) are asking for one or more Advanced Highers in addition to 4 or 5 good Higher grades before considering an application for some popular courses. Having Advanced Highers will improve a learner’s chances of getting onto the course they want to take at the university of their choice.
Why choose Edinburgh Steiner School?
Our programme will be similar to a college experience, but within the supportive atmosphere of a school, allowing learners the freedom to pursue other interests, courses, work or travel during the year. OurClass sizes will be small. Our in-person taught programme could also be an alternative to online courses.
