Reach Scotland is a national project that aims to raise awareness of and to encourage, support and prepare secondary school pupils from s4-s6 wishing to pursue a professional degree at one of the following Universities: University of

Aberdeen, University of Dundee, University of Edinburgh, University of Glasgow and St. Andrews University.

We currently have some pupils involved in the Reach programme with an interest in pursuing careers in Dentistry, Law, Medicine and Veterinary Medicine.

Reach staff are looking to add to these subject areas and are hoping to also work with students interested in Education, Accountancy/Finance and Engineering.

If you are interested in pursuing a career in any of highlighted areas above, are on track to achieve the necessary qualifications and are interested in taking part in the

Reach programme, please give your name to your Principal Teacher of Pastoral Care.
