Visited Oaklands School today - not the existing one, but the new-build which is about to open in a few weeks time! Building not quite finished - but just about, with the staff and pupils moving in just before Christmas. It's clearly been a huge investment for the city and is certainly going to be a showcase for special needs provision. Really impressed by the relationship that was evident between the staff (practictioners) and the architects/builders ... it does seem to have been very fruitful and has led to a specialist facility of great quality.
All got me thinking, especially on top of the visit to Macdonald Road on Wednesday, about just how good the specialist educational services that City of Edinburgh Council provides are ... I know you'll be thinking 'he would say that' but it is actually true.
