St. Paul's R.C. Academy is a Roman Catholic secondary school in Dundee, Scotland.
History
The school was established in 2009 as a merger between Lawside Academy and St. Saviours High School. The combined school occupies a new site on Gillburn Road in the Kirkton area of Dundee, with the two previous sites left empty. As it is north of St. John's, the other Catholic secondary school in Dundee, St. Paul's Academy succeeds Lawside in holding the position as the northernmost state Catholic secondary school in Europe.[citation needed] The academy is named after Paul the Apostle, Paul being the middle name of the Right Reverend Vincent Logan, the ninth bishop of the Diocese of Dunkeld. The school has 6 houses named after saints: St. Andrew, St. Columba, St. Margaret, St. Ninian, St. Patrick and St. Katherine.
As of 2021 the school has an enrollment of 1069 students and although the school is Catholic, it welcomes all religious backgrounds.
