Invitation to Visit

boy rugby students

To be certain that Merchiston is the right place for your son it must feel right; and the only way to get a genuine feel for us is to visit.

There are many ways to get to know Merchiston, and you are welcome to visit as many times as you need. You are not committing yourself in any way by visiting us.

We considered all of the leading private schools in Edinburgh and some of the big names in England. Having pretty much made our mind up on a different leading Edinburgh school, we visited Merchiston to be thorough. Within half an hour our previous decision totally changed. The school’s values resonated through the boys, the staff and the overall environment. It was a place we wanted our son at. We wanted him to grow and develop here.

OPEN EVENTS

We would love to talk to you about your son and, more importantly, talk with him to work out what makes him tick, discuss where he wants to go next and make sure he has the toolkit to get there. We offer many opportunities for you and your son to visit us throughout the year.
