Hyndland Secondary School has served its young people well. The School aims to provide a happy, healthy and safe environment in which every pupil can fully develop her or his talents and abilities. We hope that our pupils will be active and responsible members of the wider communities served by the School.
Together, we aim to achieve the best possible education for every individual, regardless of gender, race, disability, religion or background.
In Hyndland we have high expectations of our pupils. We require that every member of the school works hard - and achieves to the highest level possible. We aim to combine these high expectations with a sympathetic, supportive approach to the needs of the individual, all within a culture of mutual respect.
At Hyndland, education is seen as a partnership - of School, Home and Community. Teachers, pupils and parents working in co-operation, each group and all individuals assuming responsibility for their contribution, can create a positive atmosphere and ethos and bring out the best in all. As part of Hyndland New Learning Community we work even more closely together with the other educational establishments and partner agencies, to support our young people in achieving their best.
What follows in this website is information about many aspects of education at Hyndland. We hope that this information is of interest and of use to you.

Visitors to our school regularly comment on the happy, purposeful atmosphere that they find in Hyndland. Please feel free to contact us at the school if you wish to find out more or would like to arrange a visit.
We encourage parents to take an active interest, not just in the progress of their own child, but also in the life of the school as a whole.
Our school motto is ‘Spero Meliora’, ‘I (we) hope for better things’.
