Falkirk High School is a non-denominational six year fully comprehensive school, situated in Falkirk, approximately 1 mile from the centre of town.

Falkirk High School serves a widespread catchment area and has 6 associated primary schools: Bainsford, Bantaskin, Carmuirs, Comely Park, Easter Carmuirs and Langlees Primary Schools.

Falkirk High School's goal is to provide for the needs of all pupils, irrespective of age, aptitude and ability, in an equitable way through its management and atmosphere.

Founded in 1886, Falkirk High School has a strong tradition of academic, musical and sporting excellence. The school has approximately 1200 pupils and 90 teaching staff.

A new school building is currently being constructed over the playing fields of the school, to replace the old building which is in much need of repair.

There are four houses - Campbell, Robertson, Cameron and Mackay, which are all named after the first four rectors of the school. Campbell are currently the holders of the house cup.
