'The An Dealbh Mòr project was one of the most innovative and exciting developments that I have seen in Primary education. Using their unique location, language and culture, the staff, pupils and parents created a wonderful experience that leaves such a rich legacy for Sleat, Skye and our nation. I will always remember my visit to Sleat to see the project and listen to the youngsters tell their tales of such an interesting and worthwhile learning experience. The project is an excellent example of how a small Primary School can use enterprise in education to deliver many of the aspects of the Curriculum for Excellence. This was a community enterprise project of the highest calibre.'

Was sharing your site with colleagues at a seminar in London just now. All the educators are from the UK, France Germany, Holland and the United States. Needed you to know that they are so impressed with all your work. Well done.

‘This is such an excellent example f the best of contemporary art practice in visual arts and performing arts, linking with the Scottish Executives priorities in Gaelic and education. The sort of example you would hope that ‘cultural entitlements’ may lead to....’

'I think An Dealbh Mor is a consummate work of art. It was very artistic in every detail, the children’s movement and painting, the music, the choreography, and the overall vision that brought it all together. I defy anyone to say children don’t understand the abstract after that. It was 100% artistic language. I can’t say “Well done” enough!'

Dr. Meg Bateman

'It has the essential qualities for success; commitment, imagination and the enthusiastic involvement of skilled artists.'

Jim Tough

Head of Arts, Scottish Arts Council

'This was an excellent project operating at many different levels. Education as it should be.'
