From the Torridon Primary School
It is an inclusive school, Torridon. We are devoted to providing every child with the best opportunity for success. We all share responsibility for making sure that we are providing for the needs of our children, and we should make every effort to do so. At Torridon, we want to foster a love of learning and a drive for excellence in all facets of our work. We hold ourselves and all of our students to the highest standards, striving to achieve standards that go above and above those set by the government, both in the core subjects and throughout the rest of the curriculum. Every child should leave Torridon with the abilities necessary to make a difference in the world and the will and determination to do so. We firmly think that in order to do this, we must help the kids develop emotional intelligence, resilience, and bravery while also giving them the academic grounding necessary for them to excel in every area of their lives. Recognize oneself as a learner, take pride in one's accomplishments, and be aware of one's next learning steps.
