It's great to be at the forefront of education reform and to be recognised for all the work that has gone into our Knowledge Based Curriculum.

Sharing some joy from today. Looooook at this art piece that our S2s and Enhanced Provision collaborated on. It’s HUGE and beautiful. 👏🏻 MissMansonArt and all involved.

End of term. Beautiful Berwickshire. Thank you for a cracking first half of a year 🥰

Commute to work this morning. The Lammermuirs between Duns, Scottish Borders and Gifford, East Lothian 🥰

Brilliant to be in support of this during our PSE time. The students all did very well and the winning presentation was incredibly creative. Every single one of them should be proud 👏🏻

A flavour of our ‘Plethora of Pedagogy’. We asked for feedback on PL and Pedagogical Coaching, this is a snapshot .. ‘I don't think we can improve it. It is by far the best PL offer I've ever seen in any school I've worked at. You're providing us with the tools to be better.’

A very sad farewell to Bruce as he steps away from BHS for a year. Absolutely the leader our school needed and a wonderful mentor and friend. He leaves the school in a strong, safe and happy place. Thanks to MissMansonArt for this lovely piece to mark his legacy at the school.
