Sleat

Sleat is a traditional parish that has several communities and two major landowners (the Clan Donald Lands Trust and Eilean Iarmain Estate).

[2][3] In October 2007 the Trust hosted the Highlands and Islands Community Energy Company annual conference.

In the early 2000s the final section of a new double-track road through Sleat from Armadale Ferry to Broadford was finished.

Most teenage school-children in Sleat travel along the A851 to attend Portree High School, where there is a hostel for those who live particularly far away.

[8] Sleat is home to Scotland's only Gaelic-medium college, Sabhal Mòr Ostaig, which provides university-level education in a number of subjects in Gaelic, and is the largest employer in the area.
