Welcome to mgsOnline, the home page of Musselburgh Grammar School in East Lothian. Use the links at the top of the page to explore the website.

There has been a school in Musselburgh since 1626 and today the school continues to serve the town of Musselburgh as well as Wallyford and Whitecraig. It is our privilege to educate children from the age of eleven to eighteen years, and during that time we aim to seek and achieve the school’s aims.

At the end of Primary 7, pupils come to us from Campie Primary School, Pinkie St. Peters Primary School, Musselburgh Burgh Primary School, Stoneyhill Primary School, Wallyford Primary School and Whitecraig Primary School.

This is a very important step in the life of a young person. They leave a smaller school where they spend most of their day with one teacher in one classroom and come to a much larger school in terms of its size of roll and building. When pupils come to our school we want them to enter a secure and caring environment in which they can experience teaching and learning of the highest quality so they can reach their full potential. We want them to leave at the end of their school career ready for the world of work or further education and ready to be citizens of the 21st Century Scotland.

mgsOnline will give you an insight to life inside Musselburgh Grammar School. The MGS Buzz page will give you a real feel for what is going on in the life of the school. MGS Pathway is our transition area where primary pupils can ask questions about secondary school life. You can also subscribe to headteachers letters and never miss a letter that is sent home from the school. Finally, don’t forget to check out our individual subject departments and the wealth of information in our Information Zone. If you can’t find what your looking for please feel free to get in contact with the school.

We hope you enjoy using mgsOnline.

    I’ve just had a look around the site and am impressed! I think the MGS Pathway (transition) idea is a great thing and will be sure to mention it to the primary pupils that I teach. For instrumental instructors, being able to look up Key Dates is going to be very handy. The subject area also looks very promising and I look forward to contributing to the Music Department page.

    Thanks Alan - the site is still very much a work in progress. But we should be up and running by the start of next session.
