There have been phenomenal improvements across all areas of the school. We now have established a culture of high expectations, challenging targets and ambitious goals for every pupil. The outcome of these improvements is to give our pupils the best skills and qualifications they can possibly achieve to improve their life chances. These outstanding results mean that the school is in a very good position when compared with schools in Torfaen, as well as our ‘Family’ of schools (schools identified as ‘similar’ from across Wales). This has been achieved by all stakeholders i.e. pupils, parents / carers, staff and governors being prepared to raise their expectations and drive standards up. Significant improvement has been demonstrated in all areas i.e. GCSE and A Level results, Attendance and Punctuality, Behaviour and Teaching and Learning. Achievements in the classroom are matched by success in a very wide range of other areas. Pupils have the opportunity to participate in Music and Drama, with two major School Productions annually, and choral and orchestral performances. Team activities are a strength in all major sports with clubs at lunchtime, after school and before school encouraging still wider participation.

  • Secondary School Place Review Paper
    Secondary School Place review (October 2020) Background As part of the Council’s continual review of the supply of and demand for school places, it has become necessary to undertake a review of English medium secondary school places. The Council is experiencing large year 6 catchment area cohorts that are progressing through to secondary sector over the next four years, this will put pressure on the demand for secondary school places in the Vale and particularly for the Barry area. Living within a schools catchment area is a high priority for entry to secondary education after the removal of the feeder school system in September 2020. The large cohorts are expected to decline from 2024/25 onwards. Year 6 cohorts for Denominational and Welsh medium schools will meet future demand are not reflected in this review of secondary education together with Stanwell which currently operates a feeder school system for entry to secondary education. In order to manage the future demand for secondary school places at the year 7 intake, the Council has reviewed the effectiveness of catchment areas and admission arrangements in order to manage demand in the short term. Catchment Areas A school catchment area is a geographically defined area of addresses drawn up to ensure that all schools in an area receive a fair share of pupils in which children are eligible to attend a local school and are used; • To give parents an indication of their local school. • To help schools identify with the communities they serve. • To prioritise admissions to school when there are more applications than places available.
