History of Drumpark School

Drumpark School opened on 5 May 1926. The school has had many achievements in football, for which the secondary department became the second best team in Scotland in May 2012 the football team won the league 2 years in a row as Drumpark in 2011 and 2012 then as Buchanan High School, North Lanarkshire in 2013 and 2014. The students have climbed Tinto Hill and done a lot of other sports activities over the years. The school originally was a school for medical issues in the early years of the school's history but some of the senior pupils became more mainstream than some of the younger students in the lower years in the secondary department.
