Levenmouth Academy is a 8-year comprehensive school in Buckhaven, Scotland that serves the population in the Levenmouth area. In June 2012, Fife Council proposed that the neighbouring Kirkland and Buckhaven schools should close and their catchments would merge to create Levenmouth Academy. The plans were approved in April 2014,[1] and the Academy opened to pupils on 17 August 2016. The school was opened officially on 10 March 2017 by then Deputy First Minister of Scotland John Swinney. The headteacher is Ruth McFarlane, who replaced Ronnie Ross in 2023.
