Braeview Academy

Braeview Academy is a secondary school in Dundee, Scotland. Situated on top of a steep hill (brae), it was originally named Whitfield High School. It was damaged in a fire on 11 September 2018, which destroyed around half of the building. Dundee City Council are considered replacing Braeview and nearby Craigie High School with a new school on the site of the former St Saviour's High School.[2]

Houses

The school is divided into 3 main houses: McManus, Law and Discovery. Each house is served by a Depute Rector, and also House Captains which are chosen every year.

The school's house system has been restructured and there are now four houses named after local parks - Baxter, Caird, Dawson and Orchar.

gollark: Even if we ignore the logistical difficulties, it's still going to be, well, much bigger and heavier than Phobos.
gollark: To make it a normal star.
gollark: You would need something ridiculous like 60 jupiter masses of gas.
