Drumpark School was a school for children with special educational needs at Bargeddie just west of Coatbridge in North Lanarkshire, Scotland.[1] In August 2012, the primary department (5 to 11 years) of Drumpark School moved to their new campus, shared with Greenhill Primary School and incorporated into the vacated buildings of Coatbridge High School,[2][3][4] retaining the Drumpark name.[5] The secondary department (11 to 17 years) moved to a new campus shared with St Ambrose High School on 5 November 2012,[6] changing its name to Buchanan High School.
