curriculum & Learner pathways

 

Welcome

Welcome to Lochside Academy's Curriculum and Learner Pathways Website.  The website has been designed to support the young people of Lochside Academy make decisions about their subject choices and their future post school.

 ANNOUNCEMENTS!

We are pleased to make you aware of short courses on offer at NESCol to assist those preparing for end of year exams in Higher Sciences and Maths. 

 

Over seven evening sessions in the weeks leading up to the final exam, learners will work in small groups with other candidates to practice exam-style questions. Coaching during the class will help them improve the way they approach a range of questions. We will also cover aspects of the curriculum which have been identified as poorly answered in previous exams.

 

All classes are 18.00-21.00 and run at the Aberdeen City Campus (Gallowgate). Further details of the courses and sign up is available through the links below:
