Trinity Academy

Welcome to Edinburgh’s Trinity Academy Our school sits in the north of Edinburgh, nestled into the northern edge of Victoria Park and only 200 metres from the Firth of Forth. We are proud to be a socially and culturally diverse school, serving over 980 young people and their families.

Whilst we are a mainstream secondary school, we are delighted to have enhanced provisions for young people with Autism and Learning Disabilities. This allows young people with more complex needs to attend a local school as well. This is important to us, and we are proud of the work we do in creating an inclusive, ambitious and respectful environment for everyone in our school.

We recognise the important role we play, in partnership with our parents and carers, in supporting our young people to develop the skills and achieve the qualifications they require to navigate life in, through and beyond school.  The lives we nurture today are those that will help shape the world of tomorrow and, as teachers and support staff, we see the privilege we have in helping to shape, nurture and guide the young people in our care.

The successes of our young people know no boundaries; in the classroom, in the sports arena, volunteering in the community, raising money for charity or show casing their talents on the stage. To be part of Trinity Academy is to be part of something special.

Our current school estate has begun to be updated with our new PE and sports facilities opening in August. We hope to see the rest of the main school site be developed from summer, with a provisional completion date of session 2027. This will allow the school roll to rise to its projected 1200 in the coming years.
