Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:More citations needed Шаблон:Infobox school Auchmuty School is a state secondary school in the town of Glenrothes in the Fife council area of Scotland. Opened in 1957, it was the first school for secondary education in the area. It quickly outgrew the original building and additions were added in about 1970. The planning and construction of a completely new Auchmuty High School, beside the old one, began in 2011, with doors opening to pupils in 2013.
With the old buildings remaining in use until the new ones were completed, the construction began on the playing fields beside the A92 and Queensway roundabout. After completion, the old buildings were gradually demolished and new playing fields were put in place, finishing in 2014. Auchmuty's sporting facilities now include 4 floodlit tennis courts, a multipurpose cage including outdoor basketball hoops, 3 full size grass pitches and an Astro turf floodlit football pitch which is used for a wide range of sports. Indoor sporting facilities include 2 small gymnasiums, a multi gym and a full size games hall with electronic scoreboard.[1] The current role is around 1350 which is slightly higher than the recommended capacity for Auchmuty - a new school to replace the other two high schools in Glenrothes is currently being discussed.
