UPPER CLEMENTS – There’s excitement on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean when it comes to an educational model that challenges youth, fosters leadership, and provides hands-on learning for youngsters from around the world.

It’s called Gordonstoun Nova Scotia.

Work on creating the first-ever franchise of the famous Scottish school is progressing at the former Upper Clements Park in Annapolis County where as many as 600 students from around the world will experience Nova Scotia, learn from a Gordonstoun-based curriculum that includes experiential learning, volunteerism, and working closely with community.

And yes, there will be a pipe band.

Gordonstoun Scotland Principal Lisa Kerr’s thoughts on Gordonstoun Nova Scotia were recently published in Independent School Management Plus where she speaks in glowing terms of Nova Scotia, Annapolis County, and the new school.
