Inverie Primary School serves the community of approximately 120 people on the Knoydart peninsula. The 8 pupils who presently make up the P1-7 primary class and the 2 nursery children benefit from a close partnership between school, home and the village community. All the pupils’ families are involved in the active and supportive school board.
As an inclusive school, we aim to assist each child to progress from his/her current level of ability, regardless of age or class stage. With such small numbers, we are also able to consider the different pace and preferred style of learning of each child and adjust lessons accordingly.
Nursery and primary children regularly join together for games, lunches or music sessions as well as the annual Christmas performance. This close and flexible partnership prepares nursery children well for the transition to primary.
The annual Small Isles residential week is only one of many opportunities created to aid a smooth transition to secondary schooling on the mainland.
In May 2005 Inverie Primary School was inspected and was judged to be “a happy school which provides a very high quality of education for its pupils.”
