Gaelic Medium Education for the Isle of Skye
Bun-Sgoil Ghàidhlig Phort Rìgh is the third standalone Gaelic Medium School in Highland and is part of The Highland Council’s Gaelic Language Plan.
Robertson Northern managed the design and construction of the school for The Highland Council in partnership with the Scottish Government.
It was built to meet a growing demand from parents for access to Gaelic Medium education and as part of the Scottish Government's commitments to supporting the language.
The school opened for the school year in August 2018 with 133 Primary Pupils and 47 Nursery pupils, with the capacity to expand over future years.
