Open Events, Taster Days and Visits

After requesting your prospectus pack, we would recommend that families interested in joining the School arrange a visit – only then can you get a true feel for just how much the Buchan has to offer.

Visits

Prospective pupils and their families are always welcome to make an individual appointment to visit the School. You will be taken on a tour, meet the Head of the Buchan and other academic staff, as appropriate.

Taster Days at The Buchan School

Once a family has visited us, they can then arrange a taster day for their child. Our bespoke taster days are the perfect way to experience life at the Buchan on a School day, and can be arranged any time during the academic year. Your son or daughter will be teamed up with a 'buddy', who will introduce them to other pupils and our teachers, and they will attend lessons, sport and other activities.

Open Days

King William's College and The Buchan School hold Open Events in the Summer and Autumn terms. Prospective students and their families are invited to attend and enjoy a pupil-led tour. All departments will be open and there will be an address by the Principal/Head of the Buchan and a variety of exhibitions on display.
