This session we also have 7 pupils attending on placing requests from Lochaline (Highland Council). The school invests considerable time in maintaining and developing links with its partner primary schools engaging in many joint events including residential trips and themed days which support Health and Wellbeing and Wider Achievement. Further to this, the Mull cluster come together to take part in CPD and share practice through the Mull Literacy Group moderation meetings. In the Primary and Secondary departments, in addition to the SLT, there is a staffing allocation of 20fte supported by an Additional Support Needs team providing staffing at a level of 5.46fte; some of the ASN team are assigned to Priority 1 pupils and others provide support to the full range of students.

  • Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan
    Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan 2011 In 2010 the Ross of Mull (including Pennyghael and Tiroran) and Iona were identified by Highlands and Islands Enterprise as being an area which could receive support through their Growth at the Edge (GatE) programme. This involved supporting an anchor organisation, in this case Mull and Iona Community Trust, to facilitate community growth through the employment of a Local Development Officer and the creation of a Community Plan based on consultation with the local community and a socio-economic analysis. The project is funded by Highlands and Islands Enterprise & LEADER. The document will always be open to suggestions and changes from the community and should not be regarded as being inflexible. Pennyghael village, A.

The plan is an opportunity for our communities to control our development and implement projects, which will be of direct benefit to the Ross of Mull and Iona.
