Welcome to Queensferry High School
At Queensferry, we take great pride in working alongside parents and carers to ensure that every young person is supported to achieve their very best. Our role is not only to help young people secure the qualifications and skills they need for life beyond school, but also to nurture the values, resilience and confidence that will allow them to flourish in an ever-changing world. The young people we work with today are those who will shape the future, and we never lose sight of the responsibility and privilege we hold in guiding and supporting them.
Our values are central to everything we do. We keep things simple: Work Hard and Be Kind. This is not just a phrase, but the expectation of every member of our community, every single day. These values have underpinned our recent success, with sustained improvements in attainment, attendance, and positive destinations over the past three years. We are proud of the progress made, but equally ambitious and excited about the future role our school will play within its communities.
On this website, you will find information about our curriculum, subjects, staff, policies, and the important work of our Parent Council. You can also access our weekly Team QHS Update, which provides the latest news and celebrations from across the school.
I hope you find our website helpful and reflective of the ethos of our school. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you would like to know more or share any feedback.
Kind regards
Craig Downie
