Welcome to
ST COLUMBA'S SCHOOL
With an average class size of fewer than 20, and a 10 strong pastoral care team, St Columba’s offers a community experience with the academic excellence you’d expect from an Independent School.
Choosing the right school is one of the biggest decisions you will ever make for your children. Finding somewhere that will prepare them for their future and treat them as an individual is not easy, especially when you are limited by the schools in your area.
As a leading independent school nestled in the countryside border of Renfrewshire and Inverclyde, St Columba’s provides a safe, nurturing environment where your child can thrive.
From Early Years through to SVI, we offer small classes to support pupils both academically and with their pastoral care. Our pupil-centred approach has led us to rank nationally with consistently high results for Highers, Advanced Highers and National 5 qualifications, which we are incredibly proud of.
