Learners build on literacy and numeracy by developing more advanced reading comprehension, extended writing and grammar, fractions, decimals, percentages, problem-solving and basic algebraic thinking, while also studying basic science topics and preparing for the transition to secondary school.
Learners consolidate and extend their learning across all curriculum areas by developing more sophisticated literacy skills such as critical reading, essay writing and presentations, numeracy including algebra, geometry, data handling and problem-solving and sciences covering biology, chemistry and physics foundations in preparation for N5.
Learners study a more specialised and assessed programme with subjects taken to N5 qualification level, developing subject-specific knowledge and SQA exam skills in areas such as English, Mathematics and Sciences. This paves the way for progression to Higher.
Leaners study a small number of subjects in depth, developing advanced subject knowledge and independent learning through extended reading and complex problem-solving with a strong emphasis on critical analysis, evaluation and application of concepts, culminating in internally assessed coursework and externally assessed SQA examinations that prepare students for Advanced Higher.
Learners undertake highly specialised, academically demanding study in a small number of subjects, building university-level skills through in-depth theoretical learning with assessment through a combination of coursework, projects and rigorous SQA examinations that prepare students for direct entry into university.
