Melville-Knox Christian School
-Kelvingrove Campus-
Academic excellence with a Christ centred worldview
The education of our children is a key responsibility not just for Christian parents but also for the church. An excellent education steeped in the Christian worldview will help prepare our children for the world.
This is why we are entering into a new partnership with Melville-Knox Christian School and are establishing a new primary school campus in our Kelvingrove building beginning in August 2023.
Melville-Knox Christian School is currently the only Christian school in Glasgow and one of the few in Scotland. The school offers a thorough and excellent education that is based upon the Word of God and prepares children to serve God throughout all stages of life. Children need to learn Biblical wisdom, a quality that is desperately lacking in modern Scotland. Biblical wisdom is not just learning facts about the Bible, but learning how the Bible relates to all of life.
Academic excellence
Melville-Knox School aims after the highest possible standards of education. Our teachers are all of the finest calibre and registered through the General Teaching Council of Scotland. The school is committed to small class sizes in order to give extra focus to each individual pupil’s needs.
A Christ centred worldview
Since God created all things and all knowledge belongs to Him, our school teaches each subject on the curriculum from a Biblical perspective. Christianity affects the whole of life, including how we think and learn and so we teach how to love God with all the heart and mind.
