Dalziel high school is a six year comprehensive school.
It is co-educational and non-denominational in nature but really it is anti-catholic mainly down to their bigoted rector and has a massive rivalry with a nearby Catholic school by the name of
Our Lady's Dalziel has its own playing fields set in beautiful surroundings at Dalziel Park Estate, some three miles away.
This has recently undergone a multi million pound redevelopment and means that Dalziel now has the best facilities in the country.
The school is also conveniently placed in relation to Strathclyde Country Park.
Picture of the schoolWe are very privileged to have a hearing impaired department(H.I.D) attached to the school.
The hearing impaired department caters for the needs of severely hearing impaired pupils from all over North Lanarkshire, and also includes some pupils from outwith North Lanarkshire.
The deaf pupils love to fight, its their favourite past-time and spend breaks calling each other names and pulling out each others hearing-aids, most of the fighting is caused by a mental boy with glasses.
It is staffed by specialist teachers of the deaf who support these pupils in mainstream classes or in tutorial groups within the H.I.D.
In H.I.D no one can hear you scream...
Dalziel high school is known all across Scotland for its amazing "swatch".
From old favourites such as; "Gemma Gracey" who starred in the leading role of the well known spit roast, to new hot prospects such as Sarah Birch; who’s father (former depute head at the school who was appointed legend status for his punch line “hawo”.) waddled in to discover a familiar face pounding his daughter’s petal.
Rumour has it that Dalziel High is where the banter of Motherwell was first created by now ex pupils such as Findlay, Sparra, Jake and Sauce.
This banter includes words such as "ghoul", "many", "nae sauce", claims and others which you hear frequently used in the ghetto of Levi.
