St Matthew’s Academy is a denominational school and, as such, we seek to be a centre of excellence providing the highest possible quality of education in a Catholic community where care, cooperation and mutual respect are at the centre of everything we do. We want to give all the members of our community the opportunity and encouragement to achieve their full potential.

The state-of-the-art teaching facilities in St Matthew’s Academy include interactive whiteboard technology and pupil computers in every teaching area.  Well-equipped staff bases are located within main teaching areas and there are tutorial rooms on each floor for individual and small group use.  The school is also provided with extensive sports facilities (including a full-size synthetic pitch, an athletics track and a fitness suite), a 500-seat theatre/auditorium and a central social area for pupils.

The roll of St Matthew’s Academy is drawn in the main from the ten cluster denominational primary schools located throughout North Ayrshire: St John Ogilvie’s and St Mark’s in Irvine; St Winning’s and St Luke’s in Kilwinning; St John’s in Stevenston; St Anthony’s in Saltcoats; St Peter’s in Ardrossan; St Mary’s in Largs; St Bridget’s in Kilbirnie; and St Palladius’ in Dalry. Pupils from all areas other than Ardrossan, Saltcoats and Stevenston travel to St Matthew’s Academy by contract bus.
