A fantastic opportunity awaits at our great wee school for someone with enthusiasm and an adventurous spirit. What teacher wouldn’t like life in a beautiful environment with a bunch of bright, happy, confident kids who are keen to learn? Great HMI reports, great track record (one ex pupil got top marks in the Highlands with 6 A’s in her Highers earlier this month) and there’s lots of music, interest in history and the world around. And with fab home-cooked school dinners, supportive parents, loads of community spirit, there is much fun to be had here. Bring your kayak, your wellies and your imagination.
