Welcome to Beeslack Community High School

It's a pleasure to welcome you to the Beeslack Community High School website. Whether you're a student, parent, or community member, I hope this site provides a valuable window into our school.

Established in 1984, Beeslack serves the northern tip of Penicuik and surrounding areas. With around 750 students, we foster a close-knit community where everyone knows each other. Our strong relationships with Bilston, Mauricewood, and Roslin Primary Schools ensure a smooth transition for our students. We also welcome students from beyond our catchment area, creating a diverse and inclusive environment.

At Beeslack, we believe in the power of community. Our motto, "Once at Beeslack, always at Beeslack," reflects our commitment to lifelong connections. We strive to create lasting memories and friendships that extend far beyond graduation.

I joined Beeslack as Headteacher in October 2023, having been part of the school community since 2008. This role is deeply meaningful to me, as I deeply value the relationships I've built here. Beeslack is more than just a school; it's a vibrant hub for learning and engagement that connects generations.
