Does anyone have any current/recent experiences of either St Thomas of Aquin's in Edinburgh or St Ninian's in East Renfrewshire? We are looking at a house in catchment for St Thomas's and have a lot more local connections in Edinburgh, but DH and I both mainly WFH so we could potentially move to ER if there's a huge difference in the
Catholic high school provision. Interested in what the school communities are like, how good they are at stretching the abler students, general pastoral care, extracurricular provision, how much emphasis they lay on the Catholic ethos - any useful thoughts or experiences really. On paper St Ninian's gets much better academic results, but I'm aware this may just be because the huge percentage who go to private schools skew results a bit in Edinburgh.
