In 1979 Millburn Academy commenced development into a six year school and it has remained as such to the present day. <br /> <br /> Millburn Academy now has a school role of over 1000 pupils and is held in high regard throughout Scotland for the excellent level of higher education it provides and for its high record of sporting achievement.
