The site is your guide to our school and to our vision for our school community…..

Forrester High School will strive to ensure that all young people have access to tailored learning pathways that meet the needs of all our learners. We will work closely to ensure our learners know how to progress their learning. This will enable them to gain the skills, experiences and qualifications they need to achieve a successful, positive and sustained destination on leaving school.

S4 Work Experience

Our new s4 will be starting the process of work experience in the run up to the summer holidays through their SE lessons. Work Experience is seen as a valuable part of the S4 SE programme and we would appreciate support from parents. Students will be supported through the process with a view to heading out for a week from 3^rd -7^th December. There are two ways in which a young person can source a placement. We have access to a number of placements on our school database which will be shared with students in August however a more positive way to source a placement is for students to find their own through our Self Found system.
