High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Waid Academy is a public secondary school located in the town of Anstruther, Fife. The schools catchment area extends out to the area of Colinsburgh but accepts pupils from town such as Leven, Kennoway and Largo.Lieutenant Andrew Waid (1736-1804), an Anstruther man, left his money for the founding of Waid's Orphan Naval Academy for the sons of poor mariners and fishermen. For a variety of reasons it was not possible for his wishes to be carried out in the years following his death, and for much of the 19th century his will was ignored and the value of his estate accumulated. At last in 1884, Commissioners appointed under the Educational Endowments(Scotland) Act of 1882, proposed a scheme for his money to be used for the creation of a secondary school to serve the East Neuk of Fife.
