At Dunottar we enable our pupils to achieve spectacular outcomes by encouraging them to exhibit the seven behaviours of 'warrior learners'; aspiration, creativity, tenacity, independence, curiosity, collaboration and inclusivity, preparing them for the fast paced and ever changing world we live in.

Pupils flourish in this nurturing environment and challenge themselves to be the best they can be.

🔬 Science in Action This Week!
Our students have been busy exploring the wonders of science across all key stages.
KS3 had a fantastic time getting hands-on with chicken leg dissections, investigating how muscles, tendons, and joints work together. Another class brought magnetic fields to life by using iron filings to reveal magnetic field lines - a brilliant visual way to understand invisible forces.
Meanwhile, KS5 chemists dove deeper into analytical chemistry, using titration curves to explore how pH changes when bases are added to different acids. A great opportunity to apply theory, sharpen practical skills, and think critically about chemical behaviour.
A week full of curiosity, discovery, and excellent science!
