New School Building

As you may be aware, Baldragon Academy is set to embark on a new chapter in our history when we move into our new building on Harestane Road.

The date for the move has now been confirmed by the project team and the Scottish Government has agreed the closure dates that we must have in order for the move to take place.

The timeline for the move is outlined for you at the end of this letter: it is hoped that by using the period around the INSET and mid-term break we can maximise the time for the move whilst minimising the disruption to learning and teaching.

I apologise for the short-term inconvenience this will cause but I am sure you will appreciate the long-term benefits.  Very soon we will occupy a modern school building with state-of-the art facilities.  A first-class environment for learning and teaching will become a much deserved reality for our school community.
