Welcome
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to Kirkcudbright Academy’s website. It is our hope that this website will become a place that pupils, parents and carers alike find helpful and supportive.
Every pupil is important to us and we are interested in helping each pupil to achieve their goals and reach their potential. We want to celebrate each pupil’s successes both within and without school and so we encourage both pupils, parents and carers to share these successes and achievements with us.
