Eyemouth High School are rightly proud of their journey to develop a professional learning culture focussed on excellence in teaching and learning.

At the heart of this learning journey has been a culture change with a vision of creating a ‘warm, right and challenging’ school. This change has been steered by the leadership team who remain humble about their own achievements in creating a positive learning culture.

Professional learning and a drive towards continuous improvement pervade the learning community.

The learning culture is clearly underpinned by the professional courage of staff who are empowered to ask critical questions. This builds an authentic community of learning where teachers work with, and for, each other in a culture of trust.

Professional dialogue is privileged; and space and time has been created for professional learning. All teachers are now in a position where they willingly share, provide and undertake in professional learning opportunities.
