St Clare's in Drumchapel (previously St. Sixtous) was the same design of building as Summerhill Primary also in Drumchapel.

An older example is St Ninian's Primary, Knightswood and Drumoyne Primary.

This would be a good subject for a topic.

Nitshill PS is the same design as St Bernard's. I am sure the older schools are the same. There are many examples throughout the city.
