Mearns Masters

Mearns Masters is a progressive program where pupils move through four distinct pathways, learning a wide range of skills. These pathways were developed after consultation with pupils, parents and staff and are designed to allow pupils to lead their own learning as they tackle challenging briefs relating to each area.

The Four Mearns Masters Pathways
