School Facilities | Goireasan Sgoile
Ardnamurchan 2–18 Campus is located on a single site within the village of Strontian, bringing together nursery, primary and secondary education in a shared and well-resourced environment.
The main building sits at the heart of the campus and houses the secondary school alongside the nursery. It also includes a range of key shared and community facilities, including the cafeteria, assembly hall, Physical Education department and the Sunart Centre community wing. The building is clustered around a central courtyard, with the cafeteria at its heart, creating a welcoming and social hub for learners and staff.
Within the main building, learners benefit from well-equipped, dedicated spaces for specialist subjects including Science, Technological Studies, Art and Design, Music and Practical Cookery. All classrooms are equipped with CleverTouch interactive televisions to support high-quality learning and teaching and are fully set up for 1:1 Chromebook use.
The nursery is located within its own dedicated wing of the main building. It features two large learning rooms and a secure, enclosed outdoor space designed to support play-based learning and outdoor experiences.
Opposite the main building, Strontian Primary School is situated in a purpose-built annex, designed to meet the needs of a small rural school. This community-owned building, developed through the Small Communities’ Housing Trust, represents an innovative and successful local project. The Primary School includes two spacious classrooms, offices, dining and social space, and a multi-purpose room.
Outdoor facilities for primary learners include a multi-use games area (MUGA) providing all-weather sport and play opportunities, alongside an enhanced playground with extended paved areas and a recycled bonded rubber play surface.
The campus offers excellent Physical Education facilities, including a large games hall, a fully equipped fitness suite, and outdoor provision such as an artificial-surface pitch and a shinty pitch, supporting a wide range of sports and physical activities.
The campus also includes a residential hostel, located across the car park from the main building. This provides accommodation for up to ten secondary pupils from more remote parts of the Ardnamurchan peninsula, ensuring equitable access to education and the full life of the school.
Across the campus, our facilities reflect both our rural context and our strong community connections. They are designed to support a broad, engaging and inclusive curriculum, while fostering collaboration, wellbeing and a strong sense of belonging for all learners.
