St Mirin’s Academy was a R.C. Senior Secondary School for boys founded in 1922 at East Buchanan Street next to St Mirin’s Church. In 1933 the school relocated to new buildings in Renfrew Road. St Mirin’s Academy ceased to exist in 1976 when it amalgamated with St Margaret’s Senior Secondary (a girls’ school) to become St Mirin’s and St Margaret’s High School. This was when they moved to the school building which had been built for the John Neilson Institution, at Ferguslie.
Their next move was during 2002, to the newly-built School, named St Andrew’s Academy, Ben Nevis Road, Paisley.

Many thanks to James Meikle Smith for the photograph
