Sabhal Mòr Ostaig
Sabhal Mòr Ostaig is the National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture. Based in Sleat, Isle of Skye, we are the only centre of Higher and Further Education in the world that provides its learning programmes entirely through the medium of Gaelic in an immersed, language-rich environment. We celebrated our 50th anniversary in 2023, having been established before the first Gaelic-medium units appeared in primary schools throughout Scotland. Today, Sabhal Mòr Ostaig is the biggest employer of Scottish Gaelic speakers in the world.
