The Gordon Schools is a six-year, non denominational comprehensive co-educational secondary school located in Huntly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.[1] It takes pupils from Gordon Primary School, Insch Primary School, and smaller primary schools located around that area of Aberdeenshire such as Drumblade, Glass, Gartly, Cairney, Clatt, Rhynie and Kennethmont.
The School was founded in 1839 by the Duchess of Gordon as a memorial to her late husband.[2] The original buildings were designed by Archibald Simpson.
