A month ago, faculty members, parents, local businesses and pupils were scrambling to find a way to save Scotland’s last Catholic boarding school from closure.
It was announced on June 1 that Kilgraston School, established in 1930, would shut at the end of term on June 24 due to financial struggles and a decline in pupil enrolment.
But with that date now passed and term now ended, it is instead “business as usual” for headteacher Tanya Davie who is now looking forward to a bright future for the school after a miraculous turnaround in the 11th hour.
