History

The first school photographed in 1981

The first school premises were built in 1970 on the site of a farm to provide accommodation for increasing numbers of pupils from new housing developments.

When the Scotland Japanese School (スコットランド日本語補習授業校 Sukottorando Nihongo Hoshū Jugyō Kō), a weekend Japanese school, opened in 1982, classes were originally held at Craigmount High School.[1][2] The school classes were moved to Livingston in April 2003.[1]

Craigmount has a long tradition of fielding strong debating teams including winning the Donald Dewar Debating Tournament several times in the early 2010s. In 2020 Craigmount pupil Freddy Simonet-Lefevre was part of the Scotland team in the World Debating Championships.

Craigmount’s team were finalists in the 2020 Future Asset Competition [3]

New building

By the late-1990s the school was catering for more pupils than it was designed for, and the low-quality fabric of the building was deteriorating. In 2003, work began on the new building under a PPP (Public-Private Partnership) scheme which involved selling the existing building and the upper sports pitches to a property developer. The new building was built on the site of the old playing fields. Work was completed on schedule, and staff and pupils moved into the school in August 2003.Шаблон:Cn

In April 2016 the school building was closed[4] by Edinburgh City Council as building work carried out under a Public-Private Partnership had been classed as unsafe. School classes were subsequently moved to several other premises across Edinburgh. Seventeen other schools in the Edinburgh area were similarly affected. Classes eventually resumed in the building at the start of the 2016/2017 academic year.
