Exam Results 2025*


Hutchesons’ pupils are once again celebrating impressive SQA results across the board. Pupils in S4, S5 and S6 have worked with resilience, curiosity and creativity, achieving grades to be extremely proud of.

Our dedicated staff, aligned with a close working partnership with parents, have been crucial to this success.

S6 pupils are looking forward to the next step with 87% currently gaining their 1st choice university place. They are moving on to a wide number of UK-based Universities including forty-two pupils who will be attending Russell Group institutions (such as Glasgow, Edinburgh, Exeter, Queen’s, Leeds and Warwick) and seven pupils who have accepted places at St Andrews University. S6 pupils will go on to study areas such as International Relations, Philosophy, Politics and Economics, Engineering, History, Economics, Law, Geology and Film. Twenty-one pupils will successfully take up places in Medicine, Dentistry and Vet Medicine.
