About
Our school is the most northerly on the British mainland and has wonderful views looking onto Dunnet Head and the Pentland Firth.
Here at Crossroads Primary, we serve the villages of Brough, Scarfskerry, Mey, Barrock and also Dunnet Head. We currently have 9 children on our school roll. We have an Early Learning Centre in previous years, which is housed in its own building. When open, it caters for children from 2 years of age until school age.
(Google Maps thinks we are in the field but believe me, we are beside the T junction between Ham and the Main Road A836)
