Aith is a well maintained school built on a new site in 1982. It has recently been extended and reorganised to enable us to meet the requirements of curriculum changes and the growing numbers of pupils on the West Side. It is situated at the head of Aith Voe near the local marina and West Mainland Leisure Centre. It has both a primary (including nursery) and secondary department. The 2008 school roll is 187 with twelve nursery pupils, seventy primary, and 105 secondary 1 to 4 pupils. The secondary roll includes pupils from Sandness, Skeld, Happyhansel, and Aith primary schools. This cluster group of primaries meets regularly to ensure effective liaison.
