Park Mains High School is a secondary school in Erksine, Renfrewshire. It is one of the biggest schools in Scotland. As well as taking in students from the town it also enrolls them from the surrounding areas of Bishopton, Inchinnan, and Langbank. Michael Dewar is the head teacher.

New school building (2012-present)

Renfrewshire Council granted a new multimillion-pound rebuild of the school. The new building was opened in August 2012 at a cost of £31m.[2] It was designed and planned by Holmes Miller. Construction was completed by Bam Construction. FES Ltd were the contractors for the electrical, mechanical, IT installations and fire and security systems.[3][4] The building offers a larger, brighter space for the pupils to feel in a social hub whilst still being in a controlled learning environment. One key feature of the school is the central 'street area' with natural sunlight. The school's new sports complex has a multi-use games hall and gymnasium. The site of the old school building is now a £400,000 multi-use 3G sports pitch with running track. There are also hockey pitches and a rugby field.[5][6] The school building has regularly featured in architectural publications. It has received award nominations for its design and construction.[7][8]

Guidance

Pupils are assigned to a guidance group in their first year at Park Mains. The guidance groups are named after tributaries of the Scottish Isles. These are Skye, Arran, Bute and Mull. Pupils remain in these groups until their departure from the school.
