Monday, 29th May we have a place available Visit our website 
Scotland is known for its open outlook and great hospitality – I can assure you that a very warm welcome awaits all visitors to Dollar Academy. Please visit our website to learn more about our friendly and welcoming boarding houses, our beautiful location, the great range of subjects on offer, our top exam results and our wealth of co-curricular opportunities.
Dollar is recognised as one of the UK’s leading independent schools and has an excellent reputation amongst the UK’s top universities. The school offers the widest range of academic subjects in Scotland, complimented by over 100 co-curricular activities. It has a very strong reputation for sport, music and art, in particular.
The values ‘Be Kind’, ‘Work Hard’ and ‘Get Involved’ are central to the ethos of the school and our staff recognise that excellent pastoral care makes a vital contribution to the intellectual and social development of each individual pupil.
Around 90 boys and girls live in three small family-style boarding houses located on Dollar’s stunning 70-acre campus at the foot of the Ochil Hills. Tutors help with homework and excellent social, sport and leisure facilities are available for pupils to use. One great advantage of boarding at Dollar is that there are several hundred day pupils living locally, so boarders have a wide circle of friends, both in and out of the boarding house.
Located between the university cities of St Andrews and Edinburgh, Dollar is less than an hour from Edinburgh and Glasgow, with dozens of direct flights each day to London and across the globe.
