CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS

We are proud that St Columba’s has been at the heart of the Kilmacolm community for over 110 years and has developed to become one of Scotland’s leading independent schools.  The Governors and staff are focused on the development and progression of the School to build on the successes of recent years.

A key strategic issue facing the School at present is the enhancement of Senior School facilities to ensure that we continue to offer a first class learning environment.  Ideally we would like to have new teaching accommodation for the Science and Humanities faculties which will then free up space within the main building to allow Transitus pupils to return to Senior School, provide additional teacher bases and social areas for pupils. 

With meeting this challenge in mind, two houses adjacent to the School on Gryffe Road have been acquired. Detailed planning proposals remain under active consideration.
