Frequently asked questions

How many schools are there in Glasgow?

The Scottish Government's official school contact details lists 240 open schools with a Glasgow address (as of 14 June 2026), including 175 primary and 38 secondary schools. Schools open, close and convert over time, so always check the official record for the latest position.

Does living in Glasgow guarantee a place at these schools?

No. Each school's admissions are governed by its own policy and the local authority's coordinated process. Distance is often a tie-breaker behind criteria like siblings, faith and catchment, so being nearby helps but never guarantees a place. Always check the school's current admissions policy and last year's cut-off distance.

Where does this list come from?

Every school on this page comes from the Scottish Government's official school contact details, retrieved on 14 June 2026. Each name links to the school's official record, which is the place to verify details before relying on them.

How do I check the distance from a home to a school in Glasgow?

Use our free Find Schools Near a Postcode tool to see every school within a chosen radius of a postcode, or the School Distance Calculator to measure a specific home-to-school distance. Both use straight-line distance, which is a planning aid — local authorities may measure differently for admissions.
