Year-round, but especially as exam results season approaches, it's vital that pupils are equipped with the tools and support to ensure they succeed and flourish at school and at home.

In this blog, Merchiston Castle School, Edinburgh Deputy Head of Wellbeing, Danny Rowlands, explains what they do to cultivate a positive working environment at school and the importance they place on student wellbeing.

Huge congratulations to Kitty (U6) who took first place in The Caledonian Club's Scottish Schools Art Exhibition with her piece ‘Daisy’.

The standard of work submitted was exceptionally high and Philip Smith, adjudicator of the competition and Associate Director at Lyon & Turnbull commented, 'This painting is a compelling antidote to the vacuous selfies evident in contemporary society, with the artist managing to capture the essence of the sitter in paint, transporting the viewing into their world which holds the viewer’s gaze.’

It's a remarkable piece—congratulations Kitty 🎨
