About

Bothwell Primary is a non-denominational primary school, situated in the village of Bothwell.  We are part of the Uddingston Grammar Learning Community. The associated church of the school is Bothwell Parish Church.  Our school currently caters for children from P1 to Primary 7. Our nursery was a temporary addition to the school and closed in June 2024, moving to the purpose built Wooddean Nursery within the village. 

Our school comprises of 13 classrooms, the Rainbow Room (for wellbeing groups), a large gym hall and separate dining hall. At present we have 13 primary classes, where the current roll is 341 in the school. We have a staffing allocation in line with National and Council policy.

At Bothwell Primary we welcome community involvement in the school including working with Bothwell Futures and Brighter Bothwell. We are keen to work with all stakeholders and welcome them to community events, assemblies and other celebratory occasions. Our school is vibrant and busy. We value our links with parents and carers and work hard to foster positive relationships between home and school.

We have a very active combined PTA and Parent Council, who are a great support to us. They organise fundraising events and fun activities for the children and support the school’s drive for improvement.
