Duncan Forbes Primary School opened
in 1977 and is built on what was once the grounds of Culloden House,
home of the Forbes family. There are presently 11 classes from Primary
one to Primary seven and a nursery class which provides pre-school
education for 3 and 4 year olds. Currently we have 273 pupils and 48 in
the nursery class (24 in the morning and 24 in the afternoon).
The
teaching areas are semi open plan with a number of classrooms sharing a
communal working area. These shared open areas provide additional space
which allows flexibility in our approach to learning and teaching. There
are two main buildings plus an administration wing, a computer suite/GP
Room and gym hall/dining room.
Children with Additional Needs are well supported in mainstream classes
by Support for Learning Staff and input from specialist services.
All
staff actively promote positive behaviour and children’s achievements
are recognised and celebrated throughout the school.
