Results
100% of the pupils who left Lochend Community High School in 2023/24 were in a positive destination (higher or further education, training, employment, voluntary work or an activity agreement), against 93% for its virtual comparator, a matched group of similar pupils from other schools.
49% left with literacy and numeracy at SCQF level 5 or better (virtual comparator 57%).
Scotland’s own measures, not GCSE or A level results, and never set beside England’s. The virtual comparator is not a school.
