Head teacher David Nicholls with senior pupils
"Our new school provides everyone associated with Gleniffer high school the opportunity to look to the future and to work towards raising educational standards, and widening opportunities for achievement."

David Nicholls, head teacher


As part of the new facilities, Gleniffer's 1,350 pupils and 137 staff enjoy the use of specialist classrooms specifically designed for information and communications technology, music and science. There is also a recording studio, a kiln room for pottery classes, a dance studio and a fitness suite.

Depute head George Fairhurst in the science lab
"The new facilities are so much better than we had before. The rooms are bright and airy and it's really helpful to have more IT points and power sockets. It means pupils can use computers in the science laboratories."

George Fairhurst, science teacher



Sporting facilities include a games hall, a gymnasium and a full-size floodlit synthetic pitch. Two full-size grass pitches and a seven-a-side grass pitch are expected to be finished next summer.
