Our school is situated near the shore of Loch Sween on the Argyll coast of Scotland. We pride ourselves on having a welcoming ethos and a strong partnership between staff, pupils and parents.

We work to promote children’s and human rights in all we do and are committed to becoming a Rights Respecting School.
