Bun-sgoil Ghàidhlig Phort Righ is a Gaelic-medium primary school in Portree on Skye, Scotland. The school opened April 2018, becoming the third purpose-built Gaelic school in the Highland Council area.The £8.7million building was built by Robertson Construction.[1]

One local councillor criticised the new school as a "disaster for community relations" as pupils in a small community should not be divided by language.[2]
