Welcome to our learning community.

Situated within the Strathmartine ward of Dundee City, Baldragon Academy is a non-denominational comprehensive secondary school (S1 to S6), supported by Children and Families Service, Dundee City Council.

The Baldragon Academy cluster consists of Sidlaw View Primary School, Downfield Primary School, Craigowl Primary School and Ardler Primary School.  In Spring 2018, our school moved into outstanding purpose built accommodation and we are exceptionally proud of our excellent new facilities and school environment.

At Baldragon Academy, closing gaps in attainment and raising attainment for all remains our main priority. We do this by adopting a learner centred approach which starts explicitly with the provision of universal support within all aspects of learning and teaching. We aim to motivate and inspire each other to reach our full potential and take pride in our community.  Our school values underpin everything that we do at Baldragon Academy. Our agreed values of fairness, honesty, responsibility and achievement are built on a foundation of respect.  With respect, we work together and achieve more.

As parents and carers, you are our key partners in your child's education and important members of our school community. The partnership between pupils, staff and parents is at the heart of our school community. 

Baldragon Academy is on a journey to excellence.  Thank you for joining and supporting this exciting journey.

I trust that your child will enjoy a safe, happy and challenging learning experience with us.

Mr H McAninch
