16+

Preparing for life beyond school can be an exciting and challenging time. We encourage all pupils to stay on at Kinross High School until they secure a positive destination, such as a place at college, an apprenticeship, employment or a place on a university course. However, young people who turn 16 between 1 March and 30 September can leave school after 31 May of that year; pupils who turn 16 between 1 October and the end of February can leave at the start of the Christmas holidays in that school year.  

All young people at KHS benefit from the support of Skills Development Scotland and they are able to request an appointment from this service at any time through their House Pupil Support Team or the school office.  

Our House Pupil Support Teams are there to support pupils every step of the way.
