  Welcome to our web site, we are now in the seventh year of the school's existence and although still a relatively “young” school we have been working hard as an ever growing team to build a school of which our pupils and parents can be justifiably proud.
Our mission statement “Enriching life through lifelong learning” enshrines our belief that learning, whilst founded on the basic skills extends to encompass the broader creative and problem solving skills that will enrich our pupils’ lives and enable them to become active learners in a changing and technologically driven society. Our learning is based on a set of values which promote individual and collective responsibility, promoting good local, national and global citizenship. We are keen to use opportunities presented by the latest technology to learn about and link with school across the world.
In the year Academic year 2006/7 we became the first school in Bridgend to achieve the prestigious International School Award which recognises the quality and depth of the international dimension in our curriculum. We also became the first school in Wales to achieve the Inclusion Quality Mark for the way in which we meet additional needs at either end of the spectrum. We cemented these successes by proving we have not forgotten the “basics” of literacy and numeracy by achieving the Basic Skills Award for the second time. On top of that we achieved the Investors in people Award in November for the third time. This year we are aiming for the ICT quality mark and to achieve Green Flag status through our Eco schools activities. We set ourselves high standards to ensure that we are consistently providing the best possible all round education for our pupils.
I hope you enjoy a flavour of some of the activities in our school as you scan our web site.
