Former First Minister of Scotland Jack McConnell officially opened the new school building on 9 June 2008, although pupils were being educated in the new building since January 2008.

The school has 25 classrooms as well as a workshop, a theatre, a gym hall and dance studio, a fitness suite, a library, three support rooms and a cafeteria.

50% of pupils in S3 achieved fourth level of Curriculum for Excellence in reading skills, with 33% achieving fourth level in literacy.

This figure is higher than both the Virtual Comparator used by the Scottish Government to measure performance of other similar schools, as well as the North Ayrshire Council local authority average.
