The School of Plural Futures

October 2020 — ongoing

The School of Plural Futures is an alternative school led by local 16 – 35 year olds, exploring the reality and potential of life in Skye and Lochalsh.

The school takes the form of a series of gatherings – a space to think and create responses to local and global challenges facing young people. We ask questions and learn together about social justice, belonging, different kinds of crisis, and about what it means to live and work here today.
