Gaelic medium nursery and primary school

The Gaelic Medium Unit at Gilcomstoun Primary School,  Skene Street, Aberdeen caters for nursery and primary pupils from all over the city. Children within the Gaelic unit are fully integrated within the school and partake in various activities including assemblies, school trips, a visit to the local Mod in Inverness (where they have had a great deal of success over the past few years) and various Gaelic television productions. The children are taught the full curriculum through the medium of Gaelic and should be at the same levels in all subjects as their counterparts by Primary 7 but with the added benefit of being bi-lingual. Most children within the Gaelic Medium Unit have parents with little or no Gaelic.
