Administrative history

Prior to the 1930s, this school was Killin Public School. By the 1930s, the main structure of Scottish secondary schooling had settled into a pattern of three-year ‘junior secondary’ and five-year ‘senior secondary’ courses and the Killin School became a Junior Secondary. Junior Secondary schools were intended to prepare people for training and work. Senior Secondary schools were intended to lead to the professions either directly or through university. Allocation of pupils between these courses was mainly on the basis of tests of intelligence and of attainment in English, arithmetic and mathematics, taken in the final year of primary school.

Archival history

The records of Killin Junior Secondary School were first accessioned in 2012. It is presumed that the records were transferred to the Central Regional Council Archives by Perth County Council after the local government reorganisation of 1975.
