Dochgarroch Primary School is a small rural school situated four miles from Inverness on the A82 Fort William road. The school was first opened in 1875. The school provides bright comfortable accommodation for pupils within the designated area, which is from the Caledonian Canal to Loch Laide in Abriachan and from the Crematorium to the Clansman Hotel on Loch Ness Side.

The school is of a traditional stone design and is situated in spacious grounds with a sports field, grass and tarmac play areas and shelters. The ELC (Early Learning and Childcare) has a lovely newly refurbished setting in the school building. P1-7 are in a portacabin in the grounds. School meals are cooked at Kinmylies Primary School and transported to Dochgarroch. As we do not have a hall, children eat both in the ELC room and in the small room just off the ELC and can choose to eat outside at our picnic tables if the weather is nice. We utilise our outdoor area well and make sure that the children are outside as much as possible.
