Welcome to Drumlemble Primary School

Drumlemble Primary School & ELC is a rural school located just outside the village of Drumlemble near Campbeltown in Kintyre. We have two classes within the school, P1-4 and P5-7, who are taught by a class teacher and a Principal teacher, as well as a part-time teacher who teaches both classes across the week. We have an ELC within our school, which has two child-care and education workers. Our ELC utilises both their indoor and outdoor environment to ensure a wide range of experiences are on offer. We have wonderful support staff working within the school. Our Headteacher, Mr Long, and our Depute Headteacher, Mrs McMillan, have responsibilities across three schools in Kintyre, which means we have great links with other schools in the area.

Our location provides excellent opportunities for outdoor learning within our vast school grounds. We have a wonderful grassed playground which has a wide range of resources on offer.

We aim to give all our children the best possible start in school life by providing a nurturing environment that encourages successful learning through the range of curricular experiences that we offer, community links and outdoor learning. We strive to promote an ethos that promotes positive relationships and values that are shared by all. Our priority is to have a safe and inclusive environment where all pupils can feel happy, healthy and successful.

We are proud to have been awarded the Silver Award for Rights Respecting Schools, the Silver Award for Nurture and the Gold Sport Scotland Award.

Our School Values are:

➢ Respect
➢ Teamwork
➢ Partnership
➢ Inclusion
➢ Collaboration
