Lomond School

We offer a superb quality of life. Lomond School is a co-educational independent school, for children aged 3 to 18, positioned in the elegant suburbs of Helensburgh, Scotland, a coastal town located only 10 minutes from Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. We make the most of our unique location by providing and encouraging participation in a wide range of opportunities for outdoor learning, sports and activities. Our young people enjoy a superb quality of life in a beautiful and safe environment.


As the west of Scotland’s only boarding school, living and studying at Lomond School offers a truly unique experience for boys and girls from the UK and around the world. As a co-educational house, siblings can live together under one roof – the mix of boys and girls of different ages engenders a real family feel, which helps our boarders to settle into life at Lomond School with ease.


As home to young people from a diverse range of nationalities and backgrounds, and with a location and facilities that provide endless opportunities for adventure, our boarding house ‘Burnbrae’ is an exciting and cosmopolitan place to learn and grow. We are proud that our boarding school is a finalist for Boarding School of the Year at the Independent School of the Year Awards. We offer the International Baccalaureate and our exam results are amongst the best in the country.

The mantra, ‘Every child is known’, is genuine. ‘It’s like a family!
