I've recently seen some posts advertised by this school and was wondering if any forum members have any information to share regarding working conditions at this institution.
Thanks in advance

It is part of the College of Humanities and Social Science at the University of Edinburgh. It merged with the University in the late 1990s/early 2000s. Edinburgh is a highly regarded university. I know a couple of people who trained to be teachers there more than 15 years ago, who speak highly of it, but that is the limit of my knowledge of Moray House.

I do know that the Scottish Government has cutting funding for teacher training places (see http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/8504946.stm), so I suspect that no School of Education is in great shape in Scotland.
