Tain school consultation extended

The deadline for a consultation to find a site for the proposed new 3 – 18 school campus in Tain which will replace the existing Tain Royal Academy, Craighill and Knockbreck Primaries and St Duthus Special School has been extended to Friday 18 July, 2014.

The three options under consideration are: the existing Tain Royal Academy site, the existing Craighill Primary School campus and a site at Kirksheaf.

Details of each of these site options are available on The Highland Council’s website at: www.highland.gov.uk/tainschool.

The Council is consulting with those affected by the decision to amalgamate the schools on the best site for the proposed new school building and the public are invited to provide comments on the three site options.

A report on the outcomes of the community engagement will be presented to the Council’s Education, Children and Adult Services Committee on 28th August 2014.
