Lerwick South, Shetland Islands: Schools

Lerwick South has a solid range of local education options, with 2 primary schools and a secondary school in or near the neighbourhood, plus further education facilities close by. Sound Primary School and Bell's Brae Primary School both serve younger children in the area. Anderson High School sits just inside the neighbourhood and provides secondary education for all of Shetland. It's the main secondary on the islands, so it plays a strong role in the community. For post-16 learners, UHI Shetland's Islesburgh Learning Centre is within the neighbourhood. The main UHI Lerwick Campus is a short distance away on Gremista Road. Scottish schools are inspected by Education Scotland rather than Ofsted, so Ofsted ratings aren't available for these schools.
