Feeder schools

Rothesay Academy has 3 associated primary schools: Rothesay Primary School and St. Andrew’s Primary in Rothesay and North Bute Primary in Port Bannatyne.[1]

History

The school as an institution first opened in 1870, replacing the earlier Croft Lodge and a church school.[1] The original Victorian building, overlooking Rothesay Bay, was extending and modernised in 1910 and again in 1938. It burned to the ground in 1954.[1] and was replaced by a building of contemporary architecture, which opened in 1959. The present building at Townhead dates from 2007,[2] on a joint campus site with Rothesay Primary School and Argyll College.[1] It is one of a batch of joint campuses constructed around the west of Scotland from 2005 to 2009.
