APPENDIX 1 1.0 THE PROPOSAL AND CONSULTATION PROCESS 1.1 The Proposal being consulted on is as follows: To relocate the current Tobermory 2-18 Campus to a new purpose-built 2-18 campus school building. The Proposal, if approved, will be implemented when the new accommodation has been completed. 1.2 Decision to Undertake the Consultation This Proposal is being advanced because Tobermory 2-18 Campus currently suffers from poor quality accommodation. Relocating the school would permit the construction of a new purpose-built campus building and considerably improved Education accommodation. The opportunity to build a new campus has arisen from the successful application for funding from the Scottish Government’s Learning Estate Investment Programme (LEIP). 1.3 Consultation on the Proposal Under the Schools (Consultation) (Scotland) Act 2010 (the 2010 Act), if a local authority proposes to relocate a school, it must undertake a statutory consultation with the ‘relevant consultees’ affected by the Proposal. In this instance, located within the current campus: • Tobermory ELC • Tobermory Primary • Tobermory High and the following primary schools that are associated primaries: • Dervaig Primary School • Salen Primary Gaelic and English medium School and ELCs • Lochdonhead Primary School and • Ulva Primary School are the “affected schools” in terms of the 2010 Act. For the avoidance of any doubt, this proposal does not include the incorporation of the associated primaries into the new campus building, nor will it change the current leadership and management structure within the 2-18 campus. The formal consultation on the Proposal within this document will be undertaken under the terms of the 2010 Act. The consultation period will start on 18th August 2025 (with due written notice of the Proposal issued to the relevant consultees listed in Appendix 1) and end on 26th September 2025. Written representations must be received by the close of business on the closing date in order to be taken into account. At the outset of the consultation period, the Council will also publish details of the consultation exercise, including a copy of this Proposal Paper, on the Council’s
Page 4
APPENDIX 1 website for the wider public to access the consultation materials and submit responses. 1.4 Public Meeting A public meeting will be held on Tuesday 9th September 2025 at 6pm in Tobermory 2-18 Campus to discuss the Proposal. Anyone wishing to attend the public meeting is invited to do so. The meeting will provide those in attendance with an opportunity to: • Hear about the Proposal; • Ask questions about the Proposal, and • Express views about the Proposal. A note will be taken of any views expressed and/or questions asked at the public meeting so that they can be taken into account as part of the consultation process. A representative from Education Scotland will attend the public meeting as an observer. In addition to the public meeting, written representations will be able to be made during the consultation period. A copy of the Consultation Response Form can be found at Appendix 6. 1.5 Pupil Views Pupils deemed to be of appropriate age and maturity at the affected schools will be invited to comment during the consultation process, through sessions facilitated by a Council Officer, ensuring that they have an opportunity to contribute their views. 1.6 Education Scotland (HM Inspectorate of Education, HMIe) At the start of the consultation period, the Council will provide Education Scotland with this Proposal Paper. When the consultation period has ended, the Council will collate all of the written and oral representations. Thereafter, this information will be provided to Education Scotland and include; • A copy of written representations made to the Council on the Proposal (or summary of them if agreed with Education Scotland), • A summary of oral representations made at the public meeting, and • Other relevant documentation, so far as is practicable. Education Scotland will prepare a report on the educational aspects of the Proposal taking account of the above, and insofar that Education Scotland considers them relevant, any written representations made directly to them. Education Scotland may also visit the schools affected by the Proposal and make any other enquiries as they consider appropriate. Education Scotland require to send their report to the Council no later than three weeks (or longer if agreed with the Council) after having received the information from the Council.

APPENDIX 1 1.7 Consultation Report After receiving Education Scotland’s report, the Council will review the Proposal taking account of written representations received during the consultation period, oral representations made during the public meeting and Education Scotland’s report. The Council will then prepare and publish a Consultation Report, which will include a recommendation regarding implementation of the Proposal and make it available for inspection. The Consultation Report will be published no later than three weeks before it is formally considered by the Council’s Community Services Committee. 1.8 Inaccuracies or Omissions Where any inaccuracies or omissions are discovered within this Proposal Paper, the Council will determine whether relevant information has been omitted or, if there has been an inaccuracy. Appropriate action will then be taken by the Council, which may include issuing corrections, re-issuing a corrected Proposal Paper or an extension of the consultation period. In any of these events, all of the Relevant Consultees (and where applicable the notifier(s) of any omissions or inaccuracies) and Education Scotland will be advised of the action that is taken. 1.9 Integrated Impact Assessment The Council is required to carry out impact assessments in relation to certain policy and service changes to ensure it considers how those changes may impact different groups, in accordance with the Council's statutory duties relating to equalities, inequalities of opportunity, children’s rights and wellbeing, consumers and island communities. The statutory consultation exercise will enable officers to consult with the above- mentioned groups and gather evidence pertaining to potential impacts of the Proposal. Those impacts will be assessed by officers on an ongoing basis and an Integrated Impact Assessment will be published alongside the Council’s Consultation Report. 2.0 IMPLEMENTATION DATE FOR THE PROPOSAL 2.1 The proposal, if accepted, would be implemented when the building works for the new school campus have been completed. Officers currently anticipate that in accordance with the current project plan this will be from early 2029. This is an estimate, is dependent on a number of milestones set out in the current project plan and therefore may be subject to change. 3.0 BACKGROUND 3.1 Tobermory 2-18 Campus is a co-educational, non-denominational school serving the town of Tobermory along with the surrounding area. The school is situated in The Manse Erray Road, in Tobermory. Tobermory Campus is an all-through school with children and young people aged 2 – 18 years. The campus consists
Page 6
APPENDIX 1 of an early learning and childcare (ELC) provision, a primary and a high school. The campus has three different buildings associated with it along with a Pre5 unit. The original block B was built circa 1930s with Block F being added in the 1970s. The Art block was then added between 1980/1990 and the Pre5 unit built in 2010. The ELC setting provides flexible placements for 38 weeks of the year during term time. Children and young people attending ELC and Primary are usually, but not exclusively, based in Tobermory while the Secondary School serves North and Central Mull, with associated primary schools of Dervaig, Lochdonhead, Salen and Ulva Ferry. There are also children and young people attending secondary on placing requests (from Highland Council and from the South of the island). Children and young people benefit from Gaelic Learner Education delivered across the school and Literacy and Gàidhlig in the secondary stages. The catchment areas for the primary and secondary are shown in Appendix 4. The school roll, at 13-05-25, is shown as per the table below. Primary P1 P2 P3 P4 P5 P6 P7 Grand Total 11 10 17 8 6 16 12 80 Secondary S1 S2 S3 S4 S5 S6 Grand Total 25 21 36 30 29 13 154 ELC total 19 3.2 Given current Tobermory Campus is assessed to be ‘C - poor’ in terms of suitability there is a requirement to improve the situation. This is currently the only school building in Argyll and Bute with that suitability rating. The lower grading of Tobermory Campus building is largely driven by accessibility, restrictive drop off space, lack of social spaces and restricted specialised classes. The building currently sits at 41.91% incline with little scope to improve this. Analysis of the council expenditure on the campus also highlights a trend of increasing reactive or maintenance spend and a sizable sum of investment on addressing degrading fabric at the school over the past five years. Roof works, water ingress and building fabric repairs are common sources of expenditure. The condition of the building can be improved from further investment; however, the suitability is much more challenging to be upgraded without significant refurbishment. Such year-on-year construction can be detrimental on both pupils and staff over long periods of time, and/or would require decanting of operations for periods. Other environmental (climate change) standards or digital enhancements also remain below the minimum standard compared to a new build LEIP school. 3.3 In December 2021 the Cabinet Secretary for Education and Skills outlined to the Scottish Parliament that LEIP Phase 3 would seek projects within 12 months.
Page 7
APPENDIX 1 The project team worked on developing the application adhering to the detailed requirements set out by the Scottish Government: • Local investment priorities and their context within the ‘Place’ • The proposed Vision, Strategic Outcomes and Objectives for the project(s) • Alignment with Learning Estate Strategy 2019 Guiding Principles • Ensuring political and financial commitments are in place for the investment priorities • Demonstrating implementation of the terms and conditions of the programme on Phase 1&2 projects (where applicable). The Council submitted a bid for Scottish Government LEIP funding in October 2022 for a 2-18 campus on Mull. In October 2023, the bid was accepted. The bid met the LEIP eligibility criterion on the condition that funding would be provided on a “like for like” basis to replace the existing Tobermory campus. 3.4 The Council, in April 2024, decided to commence the Business Case, undertake engagement exercises and commence the site selection process. 3.5 In August 2024, the council issued an open call for sites for the new campus to identify potentially suitable sites. The council carried out an extensive community engagement exercise in September 2024 to ask the community what was important to them when considering a site for the new campus. Councillors considered the findings in December 2024: Read the Community Engagement Analysis Report. On 20th December 2024, the Council confirmed that the new Campus would continue on a single-site basis. A detailed site appraisal was carried out with the output presented to the council in early March 2025. This process included an Integrated Impact Assessment and views were sought from community groups to inform this to supplement the engagement analysis report. 3.6 On 7th March 2025 the preferred site was confirmed at the Special Council Committee Meeting as ‘Tobermory South’. The site is situated to the southern edge of Tobermory with the western boundary adjacent to the A848. This is illustrated in relation to the existing campus on the map in Appendix 2. Councillors made this decision based on evidence presented through a comprehensive preferred site recommendation report with a large suite of appendices, the culmination of six months of activity. The meeting minutes and report is available on this link: Agenda for Argyll and Bute Council on Friday, 7 March 2025, 1:00 pm - Argyll and Bute Council 3.7 Following the decision on the preferred site, as Tobermory South, by councillors, it is now appropriate to formally consider this statutory relocation Proposal in parallel with the development of the outline business case.

APPENDIX 1 3.8 The new building will include the appropriate number of learning spaces, modern practical subject specific rooms, a larger gym hall and a larger dining hall. The outdoor environment will be accessible and suitable for outdoor learning. More information about the Campus is available on the council website. 4.0 EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS STATEMENT – ASSESSMENT OF THE LIKELY EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSAL 4.1 Benefits for Present Pupils at Tobermory Campus Should the school be relocated and built on the new site, there will be benefits for current pupils. A new purpose-built campus will be a significant, more efficient improvement on the current establishment. These improvements include better- quality accommodation, more attractive learning environment, access to modern technology, improved disability access and improved indoor and outdoor learning environment. The Education Service also have confidence that the new building will provide excellent facilities for use outwith school hours that could be used to help meet the learning, leisure and social needs of the children and young people and the community. The design of the new campus will ensure that accessibility for all, including learners with disabilities complies with the Council’s Accessibility Strategy and the Equality Act 2010. It will be designed in such a way as to promote accessible and inclusive learning which will meet the needs of learners including those with Additional Support Needs. It will be designed to be an inspiring learning environment which is fully able to support new and innovative digital learning and engage pupils with the curriculum. 4.2 Benefits for Future Pupils of Tobermory Campus The development of a new campus in Tobermory will see children and young people benefit from a well-resourced single site which retains capacity to meet future educational needs as they arise. A new purpose-built campus offers the prospect of strong educational benefit arising from improved accommodation and learning environment for the pupils. A degree of flexibility and adaptability will be built into the design in order to provide options to alter spaces in the future in response to the changing needs of the campus population. This approach is likely to optimise the use of available space. The new campus will include new sports facilities which will significantly enhance opportunities for Physical Education and related activities. Pupils will have the opportunity to make links within and across disciplines through interdisciplinary learning adding depth and relevance to experiences. It would be expected that these improvements in facilities and the associated impact on practices would have a positive impact on the Health and Wellbeing of children and young people.
Page 9
APPENDIX 1 The new campus will be fully responsive to future learning requirements and the design process will ensure that all spaces support learning and teaching relevant to the society pupils will enter as adults. It will be designed to be an inspiring learning environment which is fully able to support new and innovative digital learning and engage pupils with the curriculum and allow them to develop skills for lifelong learning. Facilities such as a science laboratory, technology workshop, home economics room, music suite, and library will support and enhance learning as well as supporting transitions. These facilities will also benefit pupils who access mainstream/enhanced provision learning arrangements across the wider campus. With carefully considered timetabling, the whole campus would have access to the facilities. Outdoor Learning provision will also be improved for all learners and will be at the heart of the design process. This will provide enhanced opportunities for learning beyond the classroom for all learners. As part of the design for the outdoor environment consideration will be given to ensure safe pick up and drop off points for pupils arriving by a variety of transport modes and suitable parking facilities for staff and visitors. This should include a safe walking route and will allow better management of any risks in and around the vehicle and pedestrian interface. Appropriate use of CCTV will help manage / reduce unauthorised entry, bullying and vandalism and can also help pupils feel more secure. The digital learning environment would be enhanced through these proposals. Staff knowledge and skills in using digital platforms for learning and teaching will be more effectively shared among colleagues, and teachers across the campus and across the authority will work collaboratively to build online learning experiences and resources. Such improvements in provision would be underpinned by the advanced digital facilities and accessibility planned into the design of the school. 4.3 Effects on Other Users of the School’s Facilities In line with Argyll and Bute’s Learning Estate Strategy and in accordance with the Scottish Government Learning Estate Investment Programme (LEIP) requirements the use of the new building should benefit the wider community. This ensures high quality partnership working and community engagement is at the heart of the Education Service. For the new campus this would involve planned use of the library and sports facilities and the opportunity to book rooms, at appropriate times, by other users in the community. The new campus may also have the benefit of attracting and retaining staff as they could be drawn to the first-class working environment at the new campus. 4.4 Effects on Pupils of Tobermory Campus As the new campus will be located a short distance from the current site, there is not expected to be any significant effect on school transport arrangements for pupils.

APPENDIX 1 Key aspects that will improve the environment for pupils will be considered during the design phase. These include acoustics and noise, air quality, lighting, temperature control and classroom size. The improved physical environment is likely to impact positively on attendance as pupils will find the new environment a nicer place to be. In addition to this, improved physical spaces can result in a physically and mentally healthier environment leading to less time off for illness. In addition to enhancements to the physical environment, improvements to the layout of the teaching areas and classrooms will encourage high levels of collaborative and collegiate work among the educational staff, positively impacting on levels of attainment and achievement. Opportunities for inclusive and collaborative learning (where appropriate) through access to flexible learning spaces can further promote positive attitudes to diversity. The flexible learning spaces will facilitate working across school stages, allowing varied and enhanced social interactions and provide opportunities for pupils to experience quiet spaces when required, which positively impacts on emotional wellbeing. Strengths across the school will be shared. Existing good practice will be recognised and identified within the school and incorporated into strategic planning to improve provision and ensure equity of experience for young people across the school. 4.5 Implications for Pupils if the Proposal was not Implemented The Council’s Learning Estate Strategy 2021 sets out an ambition to provide a school estate that is of category A or B in terms of suitability and condition plus a number of other modern standards. Delivering a new campus in Tobermory supports that ambition, because Tobermory 2-18 campus currently has poor suitability/condition accommodation as outlined in the school condition survey for the campus. Relocating the campus would permit the construction of a purpose- built campus. Whilst there have been ongoing maintenance and improvement works, the current school is not suitable in its condition or layout as a 2-18 campus, as according to Argyll and Bute’s Learning Estate Strategy, learning environments in all schools should have a suitability grading of A or B. The current grading of the campus is “C” which means the physical element of the campus does not carry out its function effectively without continuous repair and it shows considerable signs of age. There are significant issues with accessibility due to the multiple sets of stairs and changes in level throughout the campus and narrow corridors. If this proposal is not implemented, this is likely to have a negative effect on student perception, comfort and well-being whilst learning within the building. In addition to this, students or staff with limited mobility will struggle to access all of the current school. There have in recent years been representations from senior pupils asking for improvements. As an older school building, the ongoing maintenance required to keep the campus in a useable condition can be disruptive to learning and routines. Classroom environments can be noisy as they are not designed for modern teaching methods. Another consideration is that classrooms can often be too hot or too cold, with no real way to regulate the
Page 11
APPENDIX 1 temperature at a consistently comfortable level. In addition to this there are challenges with the external environment, this is evident through insufficient parking and a tight road infrastructure serving the current site. This affects bus drop off and pick up points and active travel routes for the current site. 5.0 ASSESSING THE IMPACT ON THE LOCAL COMMUNITY AFFECTED BY THIS PROPOSAL 5.1 With the construction of the new purpose-built campus, we anticipate potential benefits for the local communities of the affected schools. These include the current ELC, primary and secondary sectors of the campus as well as the associated primary schools of Dervaig, Lochdonhead, Salen, and Ulva Ferry. Schools influence the attractiveness of an area for potential residents and, in turn, the value of future housing developments. A new campus in Tobermory may have potential to contribute towards an increase in the value of properties in the area, as well as making it more attractive for families with children to move to the area. This may also apply to the local areas that are in the catchment area for Tobermory secondary. Community members will benefit from opportunities to access the new sports facilities and library in evenings and weekends at the new campus. 6.0 EMPLOYEE IMPLICATIONS 6.1 Staffing arrangements will continue to be consistent with the Argyll and Bute Council Staffing Standards and other local arrangements. For the avoidance of any doubt, this proposal does not include the incorporation of the associated primaries into the new campus building, nor will it change the current leadership and management structure within the 2-18 campus. 6.2 Key aspects that will improve the environment for staff will be considered during the design phase. These include acoustics and noise, air quality, lighting, temperature control and classroom size. Improved physical spaces can result in a physically and mentally healthier environment leading to less time off for illness. Improved accessibility will make the building suitable for anyone experiencing mobility issues. The new campus’s enhanced digital technology capabilities will empower staff to design and deliver modern lessons while fully integrating digital tools across the curriculum. 7.0 CONCLUSION 7.1 This is a Proposal to relocate Tobermory 2-18 Campus. The matter is being considered by way of a statutory consultation exercise in accordance with the 2010 Act. 8.0 RESPONDING TO THE CONSULTATION 8.1 Interested parties are invited to respond to the consultation exercise by making written submissions on the Proposal, using the form at Appendix 6, by no later than close of business on 26th September 2025.
