At Hutchesons’, we want our pupils to find a place where they can belong. Every pupil has a story that is uniquely their own. Our role is to help them discover who they are, find their voice, and realise their potential – supported by a school community that believes in them every step of the way. Our Admissions journey is designed to help you discover who we are and how we can best support and nurture your child’s talents and ambitions.
Our Admissions Registrar is the first port of call for any queries and would be delighted to arrange a visit to our school or help answer any questions you may have about life at Hutchesons’ Grammar School, as well as being on hand thereafter to guide and advise you every step of the way.
Whether it’s arranging a tour, details of our Entrance Assessments, or a question about our Admissions process, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

In August 2019 we introduced a nursery class for children aged from three years-old. A key feature of our ten-year strategic plan is to offer a whole school experience and these steps have been taken to allow pupils to join Hutchesons’ in the nursery class and continue their education with us until the end of S6.
We firmly believe that a successful and rewarding secondary education is built on the foundations of a Hutchesons’ primary education where the emphasis is placed on developing excellent numeracy and literacy skills in a warm, welcoming and stimulating environment.
We have local authority partnership funding in place for 1140 hrs.
Our main entry point is P1 but with over 90 per cent of our pre-school pupils choosing to continue with us into P1 we have limited availability in our P1 classes. Early applications for each session will allow us to plan capacity for this important stage and an additional classes can be created if there is sufficient demand.
If you are unable to join us in P1 then we would strongly recommend entry by P4. We believe P4 is a very good time to join for both social and educational reasons. It allows your child to settle into their new learning environment and develop their own interests and friendship groups before embarking on some key emotional and cognitive developments in upper primary.
In recent years P7 has become an increasingly popular entry point for pupils joining Hutchesons’ and there are many benefits of entering at this stage. It allows our teachers to address any gaps in their learning, identified during their Entrance Assessment, so they are fully prepared for the transition into the Senior School.
The main entry point is S1. Pupils from our Primary School are joined by a similar number of children from a wide range of other schools. There is the opportunity for children to join us if there are spaces.
For August 2027/28 entry, our Entrance Assessment Day will take place in January 2027:

While we accept applications for entry to any stage if we have spaces available, our main entry points are P1, P4, P7 and S1. If you are hoping to join at a stage out with the main entry points, please speak to our Admissions Registrar before applying to check we have spaces available.
Rest assured that suitably small class sizes is very much a part of our offering right the way through from Nursery to S6.
