Queen Anne High School Dunfermline
Queen Anne High School, named after Queen Anne of Denmark, is a large non-denominational secondary school of around 1,700 - the ninth largest in Scotland. It is located in Dunfermline, West Fife.
Between the latter part of the nineteenth century and the 1930s, the school was located on a site between what is now bounded by the Kingsgate Shopping Centre, Pilmuir Street and Carnegie Drive. In the 1930s it moved to the former Dunfermline High School building that lay to the north of Priory Lane. In the 1950s it moved again to a new campus at Broomhead, just to the south of its current location. In August 2003 it moved again 200 yards to the north, next to and encroaching upon the village of Wellwood.
