What is ABZ Campus?
What is ABZ Campus?
Several schools in Aberdeen host ABZ Campus courses. These courses can be attended by pupils from any school in Aberdeen.
ABZ Campus offers a range of courses for learners starting in June 2024. ABZ Campus is a partnership which enables all of our eleven secondary schools to increase opportunities for young people in Aberdeen in the Senior Phase (particularly S5 and S6).
All secondary schools across Aberdeen city have aligned their timetables in S5 and S6 so four different columns run at the same time across the city, giving many more chances for choices to be jointly offered.
Find out more by accessing the following website:
To help families to gain a better understanding of the ABZ Campus and the courses/opportunities that are available to young people, a 20 minute video has been recorded for parents and can be accessed through the parent/carer section of the ABZ Campus website: https://abzworks.co.uk/abzcampus/parents

What are the benefits of an ABZ Campus Course?
There are many! You will experience more independent learning, which will prepare you for life after school. You will meet new people and your confidence in new situations will grow. You will also get access courses which are not offered in Bridge of Don Academy!
How do I travel to the ABZ Courses?
You make your own travel arrangements to attend other school. It is recommended that you travel by bus if the distance is too far to walk.
All under 22s in Scotland now get free bus travel. Go to young.scot/travel to apply online for free travel.
City Campus classes start and finish slightly later in the afternoons to allow pupils time to travel. Most classes run from 2pm-4pm
Things to Remember...
City Campus courses require a great deal of commitment - you may need to travel to another school twice per week
Your attendance/progress will be monitored closely and the host school will be in regular communication with AGS teachers
The level of independent learning required in City Campus courses is much greater
