School Details / Manylion yr Ysgol
Penygawsi is a successful, mixed primary school for pupils aged from 3 to 11. Opened in January 1976, the building is a semi open-plan “clasp built” structure set in extensive and attractive grounds. Improved with the addition of a willow dome, garden area, a sensory garden and outdoor classroom designed by some of the children, the extensive grounds facilitate excellent opportunities for outdoor learning for pupils of all ages. Centred around the multi-purpose school hall, there is accommodation for five classes in the main learning and activity areas. There are also four classrooms in demountable buildings in the playground.
It is our belief that confident and sound relationships between staff, pupils and parents/carers are essential requirements for your child’s well-being and academic progress. We therefore encourage a partnership approach to education and provide many opportunities for parents to be involved in their child’s life in school.
Wrap around care is available before school in our free breakfast club, and after school in a well-established childcare setting.
We have strong links with our feeder comprehensive schools, Bryncelynnog Comprehensive School in Beddau and Y Pant Comprehensive in Pontylcun
