Kyle Academy is a state-run secondary school in Ayr, Scotland, run by South Ayrshire Council. It is a non-denominational, co-educational school, serving some of the southern part of Ayr and some of the small surrounding villages such as Coylton & Drongan.

The current Head Teacher of Kyle Academy is Mary Bryne[2] who took over the position of Head Teacher from Lyndsay McRoberts, who was also joint Head Teacher of nearby Ayr Academy.[2] The Head Teacher is supported in the management and leadership through the support of three Depute Head Teachers: Elaine Reiley, Executive Depute Head who deputises for the Head Teacher in their absence,[3] Oognagh Browne and Lorna Harper.[3] McRoberts was replaced in February 2018 as Head Teacher, following her recent appointment as Head Teacher at Duncanrig Secondary School in East Kilbride.[4]

Kyle Academy ranked as the 33rd best state school in Scotland in 2017.[5]

History

Kyle Academy opened in 1979.[6] and started with 120 First Year pupils. {{As of|2015|September}} it has an enrollment of 817 pupils,[7] in 6 year groups. Its main feeder schools are Forehill Primary and Ayr Grammar Primary.[8]

The school building itself is situated next to the River Ayr, west of the A77 trunk road. Prior to becoming the site of Kyle Academy, the site was rural and farm land and at some period in its history the land was used for mining. In addition, there was also a dye works and fever hospital in the vicinity close to where Kyle Academy is now situated. Nearby, the Kyle Union poorhouse in Ayr was built in 1857-60 on Holmston Road, with the first Governor and Matron being appointed in April 1860. The buildings provided accommodation for 150 inmates.[9]

In 2017, Kyle Academy was ranked as the 33rd best state school in Scotland. Kyle Academy was one of two secondary schools in South Ayrshire to rank within the top 50 – Marr College in Troon was ranked at 38.[10]

Extension

As part of South Ayrshire's Public–private partnership, an extension was constructed in 2007.[11] The separate new annex holds a 300-seat, multimedia equipped assembly hall/theatre, E-Learning suite and meeting rooms, shows can often be performed here.
