Village School - Ysgol-y-Foel
Ysgol-y-Foel is an Infant and Junior Co-educational school which was built in 1963 and subsequently remodelled and extended in 1988/89.

This is a caring environment which is conducive to the personal and social development of each child. Standards of attainment are kept to the highest level while relating to the capacity of the individual child. Our S.A.T. results for pupils leaving at the end of Key Stage
2 last summer were 100% with Level Four and above, in all subjects. By comparison, the National figure is 68%.
The staff believe wholeheartedly that a happy child is a child who shall learn quickly and easily. Our first and continuing priority in Ysgol y Foel is that our pupils are coming to school happy each day.

Children are encouraged to develop self-discipline, self-esteem, initiative and respect for both people and property both in the school and in the community at large.
