Queen Margaret Academy is a Roman Catholic secondary school in the south of Ayr in southwest Scotland. Queen Margaret is state-run by South Ayrshire Council and takes children and students aged 11 to 18 from the whole of South Ayrshire and parts of East Ayrshire. When the lower school leaving age rose to 15, Ayr Academy did not have the capacity for all the secondary school children in Ayr so Queen Maragret had to be rebuilt. The current buildings at Queen Margaret Academy were constructed in 1977.
