GLEN URQUHART HIGH & ARDNAMURCHAN HIGH

Highland Council is trying new approaches to school organisation and the use of technology in two new community high schools - Glen Urquhart High and Ardnamurchan High. The building of these new schools by Highland Council offers an opportunity to pilot new ways of using ICT to raise achievement of school pupils and, through links to the wider community, to increase the local skills base through home-school-community ICT partnerships.

FLaT involvement?

FLaT support is provided to pilot new ways of using ICT in learning, teaching and schools' administration in environments purpose built for 21st century learning and teaching.

Links with National Priorities?

1. Achievement & Attainment
2. Framework for Learning
3. Inclusion & Equality
4. Values and Citizenship.

Project outcomes? (both schools)

• Develop learning and teaching environments and estates designed for the 21st century.

• Improve quality and accessibility of information on pupils to support better learning and teaching.

• Improve home-school links through ICT.

Please note: We are not equipped to cope with requests from students for work experience.  Most of our work is a closely guarded secret.  Our staff are highly trained craftsmen, producing prototype vehicles using traditional methods by hand.  We made an exception in Michael's case due to his obvious enthusiasm.
