  4. School system • They believe that all members of a school community should be equally valued . All learners are not the same as each other. Individuals differ in a lot of ways: in attitudes; in personality; in range and mastery of skills; and in social experience. They favour ‘mixed ability’ groups, with sensitive ‘setting’ where reckoned appropriate.

  5. Different Culture

  6. The Scots are usually recognized as a proud country indeed. They like to make sure that they’re not only a part of the United Kingdom: they have their own culture, traditions and customs. • There’s no doubting: the Scots have a very specific identity and they have many reasons to be proud of who they are and of the nation they come from. • Here are some of those reason: • 1. Scenery • 2. Irn Bru • 3. People • 4. Kilts • 5. Not English • 6. Tartan • 7.Bagpipes

  8. Tha mi gad iondrainn • Scottish Gaelic is spoken by about 60,000 people in Scotland (Alba).Scottish Gaelic is a Celtic language native to Scotland. Nowadays only old people speak it or students that loves their own traditions and study it at school or for slang words.

  11. Gairloch Inverness Edinburgh

  12. Edinburgh • Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland, the second largest city in Scotland. It is divided in two parts, the Old Town and the New Town.

  13. Gairloch, Shieldaigh & Poolewe • Gairloch ,Shieldaigh and Poolewe are small villages, civil parishes and communities on the northwest coast of Scotland. We lived there with our host families.

  14. Culloden • TheBattle of Culloden was the final confrontation of the 1745. Taking place on 16th April 1746, the battle opposed Charles Edward Stuarts’ forces against an army commanded by William Augustus, Duke of Cumberlands.

  15. Loch Ness • Loch Ness is the second largest Scottish Loch of surface area at 56.4 km, but due to its great depth, it is the largest by volume. It contains more fresh water than all the lakes in England and Wales combined and is the largest body of water.

  16. Inverewe Garden • Inverewe Garden is set on a peninsula on the shores of Loch Ewe. It is known for its exotic plants which flourish here on a latitude that is more northerly than Moscow. The garden’s profusion of plants is due to clever tree planting that shields the garden from salt winds and storms, combined with the Gulf Stream.

  17. Beaches • There are some wonderful beaches to explore in and around Gairloch. At short distance there’s Big Sand beach from where a single track road goes to Melvaig. Beyond the headland lies Camas Mor beach, a beautiful and secluded place. Visitors to Gairloch can try their hand at windsurfing or playing golf.

  18. New Friends “Its hard to imagine how many great friends you can make in a week. I Think you all should just come back and live here. ” “I didn't know that I could miss people so much and I only knew them less than a week..... it just shows how great everyone of them is ! ”

  19. Folk Dances • Ceilidh is a traditional Gaelic social gathering, which usually involves playing Gaelic folk music and dancing. It originated in Ireland and Scotland . Privately organized cèilidhs are now extremely common in Scotland, where bands are hired, usually for evening entertainment for a wedding, birthday party or other celebratory event.

  20. It is impossible to come back from one’s journey; there’s always someone else coming back!
