About Sir E Scott School

The Sir E Scott School – or the Sir Edward Scott School - in Tarbert serves the whole of the Isle of Harris and Scalpay. The coeducational, non-denominational state school is believed to have been established in 1891, though previous records refer to ‘Tarbert Harris school’, which appears to have been on a different site. The school, which has a primary and secondary department, can educate up to sixth year. The largest photovoltaic cell installation – for converting light into electricity - in Scotland is housed at the school. A major building project at the school was completed in 2005, which saw the unveiling of leisure facilities, a library, office accommodation, seven classrooms and a staffroom.
