SCQF GOLD Award
Thanks to the hard of work of our students , staff and our SCQF ambassadors , Marr College has been awarded GOLD status as an SCQF Ambassador School . This award recognises our commitment to :
• Maximising the attainment of our young people by increasing the number of curricular choices and pathways available to our students .
• Engaging with parents and employers to emphasise the value of courses beyond National qualifications .
• Working closely with other schools within South Ayrshire to share our good practice so that even more young people can benefit .
Our Curriculum
The table below shows all of the courses available at Marr College for the 2024- 25 sessions , which are non-NQ ( not National Qualifications i . e . National 4 / 5 or Higher ). These courses are skills-based and often linked to industry standards . In place of end of year examinations most of these courses are assessed internally and unit by unit , taking pressure off of our young people . The number of course grows each year and we expect to see many more courses for 2025- 26 .
