Freedom of Information responses obtained by campaign group For Women Scotland, and reported on by The Herald, show that Kilmacolm and Whinhill primary schools are equipped with shared toilet areas.
The response from Inverclyde Council details that the two schools feature ‘fully-enclosed WC spaces (not cubicles) where the washing facilities are within a shared space’.
The For Women Scotland responses show that there are 126 schools across 14 Scottish local authorities in Scotland that still provide some form of mixed-sex sanitary facilities.
The facilities across Scotland range from open-plan toilet blocks accessed through a communal entrance, to gender-neutral facilities which sit alongside single-sex provision.
A spokesperson for Inverclyde Council said alterations would be made to the facilities at the schools.
