Buchanan High School is an additional support needs secondary school in the Townhead neighbourhood of Coatbridge, North Lanarkshire, Scotland.
[1] Replacing the previous facility Drumpark School[2] established in the 1920s (the name of which continues in a separate ASN primary school in the town),[3][4] the school opened on 5 November 2012 and shares a campus with St Ambrose Roman Catholic High School and Townhead Community Centre.
[5] The Head of School since 2017 is Mr M. McGinley.
In 2019, teachers at the school went out on strike to highlight serious concerns over health issues – the shared campus was built on a former industrial landfill site, with the water table observed to be contaminated and discoloured; four teachers developed cancer and it was feared this was linked to the conditions at the school.
