Welcome to Glaitness School
Glaitness School is one of two primary schools situated in
the town of Kirkwall in the Orkney Islands. We offer
provision
for children aged 4-12 who live in the north-west sector of the town
and the adjacent rural area. We also provide additional
support
for pupils from any area in Orkney whose needs cannot
be fully met within their own local school. Having once been
two
separate schools, we now have one fully inclusive school, extensively
refurbished and adapted in order to meet the needs of all pupils.
We also seek to promote the health of all pupils and staff,
and
continually look for ways of being eco-friendly in the use of our
buildings and resources.
As
a result of much hard work in these areas, we are very pleased to have
been accredited with the Health Promoting Schools Award. We
are
also proud to have received a Green Flag, the first given to a
school in Orkney, in recognition of our eco achievements over the last
two years.
