Yes, the Nairn Academy is among many schools that have some building materials that contain asbestos. In March 2009, construction activities on the roof of Nairn Academy released some ceiling materials that had a small amount of asbestos in them. Some walls are also thought to contain some asbestos.
Proper inspection, maintenance and sharing of information can adequately control disturbance of these materials and prevent exposure. However, the concerns of parents have lead to the contracting of asbestos removal projects for some portions of the Academy building.
All of the 1st year pupils where then sent to the old Cawdor school for most of the year and did 3 periods a day of work as they were transported every morning and before the school time ended back to Nairn Academy.
Nairn Academy was created in 1832.
At one time, asbestos was incorporated into many building materials because it added strength, heat insulation, chemical resistance, and inability to burn to the products that contained it. Buildings built during that period may have included a lot of asbestos-containing materials.
The motto of Portlethen Academy is 'Do Your Best'.
