It serves an area stretching from the Glasgow boundary to Hilton Road on the west side of Kirkintilloch Road. The school was built in 1962 and has a traditional structure with 16 classrooms and a large hall with a stage. The hall is used for Physical Education, school assemblies and also contains a dining area. We have been fortunate to be able to free up a number of classrooms to use as a library, art room and an additional active learning resource base.

The school has good sized grounds including a large grass area and separate concrete playgrounds for P1-P3 and P4-P7 pupils. Local groups and organisations use the school grounds some evenings and an independent breakfast Club & After School care facility is run in the school hall throughout the year.

At Balmuildy Primary we aim to provide a safe, stimulating and caring environment for all our pupils. Our school policies take account of pupils with additional support needs and also promote equal opportunities for all sectors of the school community. Our pupils are encouraged to work to their full potential and to have respect and consideration for others regardless of race, colour or personal circumstances.

The school offers a wide range of extra-curricular clubs and activities for pupils. By working in partnership with parents, we hope to provide a stimulating and motivating learning environment for all our pupils to provide them with the skills and knowledge required to enable them to become Successful Learners, Confident Individuals, Effective Contributors and Responsible Citizens.
