As some of you know, we'll be moving to Loch Lomond in the next few months. The nearest primary school is a few miles away in a tiny village. There are 21 pupils and 2 teachers. The ofsted report is good, but obviously having only 2 teachers means that one isn't great then 50% of the school suffers.
Does anyone have any thoughts or experience of small schools? There is a slightly larger school in the next village again which some parents prefer to send their children too for a more "normal" school atmosphere.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of a small school? Ds is 2 next month, so we're a few years off, but I'd like to know my options.
