Community Schools Project

In 2004, it was decided by the Scottish Executive that eight local schools, including Denny High School, would be given the chance of rebuilding or refurbishment. The school was rebuilt on the Herbertshire Playing Fields on the eastern outskirts of Denny, a few minutes from the town centre. The construction work of the new school started in October 2006 and completed in February 2009.
