  • Transforming Lives Through Learning 1 September 2015 Dear Parent/Carer
    1 September 2015 Dear Parent/Carer Marybank Primary School and Nursery Class Highland Council Recently, as you may know, I inspected your child’s school. During my visit, I talked to parents and children and worked closely with the headteacher and staff. I wanted to find out how well children are learning and achieving and how well the school supports children to do their best. The headteacher shared with me the school’s successes and priorities for improvement. I looked at some particular aspects of the school’s recent work including numeracy and children’s learning profiles. As a result, I was able to find out how good the school is at improving children’s education. How well do children learn and achieve? Marybank Primary School has a positive climate and a caring ethos, where children learn and achieve very well. Children in the nursery are active and inquisitive. Staff support their learning well by asking questions and encouraging them to try new things. Children have an impressive range of learning opportunities in the playroom. These are enhanced by frequent and relevant visits into the local community. Staff involve children fully in discussing and planning themes and learning activities. Children are becoming aware of their own progress. They make books and wall displays about their achievements. At the primary stages, children are friendly, hard working and ambitious. Lessons are interesting and enjoyable. For example, children told me excitedly about a recent Skype conference with a real arctic explorer. Many learning experiences extend beyond the classroom into the school’s grounds and on visits which help make learning more relevant.

The road terminates at the end of the glen and as a result, receives only light local traffic and remains a very peaceful and desirable location. The surrounding countryside is renowned for its striking scenery ranging from the dramatic mountains, streams and lochs of the Highlands to the semi-ancient native woodlands.

  • Feasibility of a Community Transport Service for Contin Community Council
    FEASIBILITY OF A COMMUNITY TRANSPORT SERVICE FOR CONTIN COMMUNITY COUNCIL Feasibility Report 19 August 2020 v1 7-9 North St David Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1AW Tel 0131 524 9610, email [email protected], web www.dhc1.co.uk Feasibility of a Community Transport Service for Contin Community Council Summary This report explains the outcome of the work to assess the feasibility of delivering better community led transport for Contin and the surrounding areas. The major current concern is the declining frequency of bus services between Contin, Garve and Strathpeffer and Dingwall, but other issues include aims to reduce carbon emissions from transport and to reduce the cost of travelling, particularly for those without a car. Across the world bus travel demand has fallen sharply as a result of the Covid pandemic. Where people are travelling to destinations such as leisure centres or educational premises, the risks at the destination are considered to be similar to the risks faced when using buses. For these activities, people with concerns or more vulnerable people may choose to limit their levels of risk by not participating in the activities in the short term. As a new normal emerges across Scotland the baseline bus patronage levels are expected to be at least 20% below pre-covid levels and around 50% in some city areas. What people say they will do (stated preference) and what they actually do in practice (revealed preference) are often very different. The demand assessment in this work has suggested that there could be scope for new scheduled bus services between Contin and Dingwall.
