Whole School Open Day

Join us for our Whole School Open Day on Saturday 4 October and experience the unique spirit of Merchiston — a place where every pupil is known, valued, and inspired to thrive.

This event encompasses the entire school community, from the youngest learners at The Forest at Merchiston (our co-educational early years & primary setting for boys & girls) right through to our Sixth Form. It’s a fantastic opportunity for families to explore every stage of the Merchiston journey.

Set in 100 acres of beautiful parkland, just minutes from central Edinburgh, Merchiston offers a world-class education rooted in individual attention, academic excellence, and exceptional co-curricular opportunities. Whether your child is just starting out or preparing for university, we tailor our support to bring out their best — in the classroom, on the sports field, and beyond.
