A HIGH school headteacher who prides herself on giving pupils the best opportunities has celebrated the anniversary of their building in Dumbarton.
Alison Boyles started her career as a teacher of chemistry and biology at Jordanhill School before moving on to a depute head role at Bearsden Academy in March 2009.
"No day is the same at all. You work with so many young people, some of whom face very significant challenges and barriers and others who present in challenging ways."I feel like because I have been here for four years I have gotten to know the staff and parents very well, and I am no longer a name at the bottom of a piece of paper.
Eventually, the academy moved to a site formerly occupied by Braehead House in Townend Road in 1914, before being converted into a comprehensive school and relocating to Crosslet Road in 1972. And just as she was getting to grips with her role in the school, she was thrown into guiding her pupils and staff through a Covid pandemic."Everybody learned very quickly how to educate differently to ensure our pupils' needs were still met. From mastering Zoom, and Google Meet right through to being able to demonstrate their lessons on screens.
