We are a unique family of independent schools for girls and boys in Edinburgh’s West Endoffering sector-leading rounded education with outstanding academic results, strong pastoral care and over 300 extra-curricular activities.

Our Diamond Model of education ensures that our children are able to make the best social, emotional and academic progress possible. Through this model, children are taught together from Nursery to Primary 7, then receive the benefits of single-sex education in senior school before joining together again for a co-educational Sixth Form. 

At The Mary Erskine School we can offer your daughter extraordinary opportunities. Girls from the school have formed The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo choir, represented the United Kingdom in the European Youth Parliament on four occasions, performed in professional West End touring shows, gone on incredible trips to diverse locations including Malawi, Vietnam, New Zealand and China and represented their school and country in sports from hockey to fencing and from cricket to equestrianism.

For those girls who live further away from school, we offer a daily coach service across Edinburgh, the Lothians, and Fife and also offer Boarding facilities in our family-style boarding house. With a capacity of 30, Dean Park House provides a comfortable, close-knit and happy home from home for children from Primary 6 to Sixth Form.
