Creigiau Primary School

[EduCativ]

Creigiau Primary School is located in the village of Creigiau, approximately 8 miles west of Cardiff. It was opened in 1977 and pupils are taught through the medium of Welsh or English according to the wishes of parents. The school is one community with no sense of division. It aims to provide a caring and supportive environment where each child will realize his or her potential. We strive to create a safe, supportive and happy environment where pupils and staff can develop to their full potential through support, encouragement, and respect.

All learners at Ysgol Gynradd Creigiau Primary School are encouraged to be independent learners who think creatively to achieve the highest possible academic standards and to develop the necessary skills to be life-long learners.

Pupils may receive their education through the medium of Welsh or English, depending on the wishes of the parents. Equal status is given to both languages and equal importance is attached to each stage of education from the beginning of the Foundation Phase to Year 6. All staff and pupils are of one school and while each section is taught by teachers selected for this special task, this school is one community with no sense of division. The school is a true and healthy microcosm of a bilingual society and takes an active role in the community.
