Frequently asked questions
How many schools are there in Port Glasgow?
The Scottish Government's official school contact details lists 7 open schools with a Port Glasgow address (as of 14 June 2026), including 4 primary, 2 secondary and 1 special schools. Schools open, close and convert over time, so always check the official record for the latest position.
Does living in Port 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.
