Our Achievements

  
The Basic Skills Agency recognised our achievements in developing literacy and numeracy across the curriculum by awarding the school 
the Quality Mark Award for Primary Schools.

To win this award, we had to develop an effective action plan based upon the needs as identified through analysis of pupil performances.  Targets were set and progress against these were regularly reviewed.  The school showed a commitment to developing staff skills and using a range of differing teaching styles.
The involvement of parents in family literacy and emergent writing groups was an important element in our successful application.

The school has also been awarded the Advanced Level in Quality in Study Support Award for the standard of our Out of School Hours Learning Opportunities offered to our children. 
Activities include: rugby, netball, cricket, athletics, baseball, folk dancing, modern dance, science, I.C.T., craft, cookery, Judo  and rock music clubs as well as tap dancing!

The School's Early Birds Breakfast Club recently won the Education Extra's Breakfast Club Award
                                                                for the quality of this provision.
This club provides breakfast for pupils on a daily basis between 7.30 and 8.30am. Children are offered a wide and varied menu of food and drinks such as toast, crumpets, cereals, pancakes, yogurt, fruit, milk, milkshakes or orange juice all at very reasonable prices.  All menus are displayed in both English and Welsh and children are encouraged to use the medium of Welsh to order breakfast.

  We are also proud to tell you that we have achieved the Understanding Disability Award
