• Our school will undertake an Estyn Inspection the week of Monday 11th.

  Tue 27 Feb 2024 NV

  Estyn Inspectors would like to invite you to the Parent and Carers Meeting - Monday 11 March 2024 from 15:45 to 16:45 in the school hall of the Junior building. It is an important opportunity for communication with the inspection team. Only parents/carers of pupils currently attending the school should attend. Normally, no children of school age should attend with parents as this can sometimes be disruptive or distracting.  

  A link to the parent/carer questionnaire will be sent to you where you can share your views of our school.

  A Parent Information leaflet is available in our Estyn page in Key Information on our website.
