Cymer Afan Comprehensive School

[EduCativ]

The Federation and wider community are currently experiencing several challenging issues but as Acting Headteacher, We offer you a personal commitment that pupils’ learning and success will be at the forefront of all the schools across the valley.
As a federation, we have always put great emphasis on personal development as well as academic achievement and this will continue to be a major focus this year, regardless of the current consultation process. Every child matters to us we are committed to developing well-rounded individuals with a thirst for life-long learning. It is my ambition that every child will achieve their best and look back on their time within the Federation with fond memories and a real sense of achievement.
Our pupils make outstanding progress and achieve impressive exam results due to their hard work and the high-quality teaching provided. The vertical curriculum is something that the Comprehensive School prides itself on, the results that have been produced by pupils in years 9, 10, and 11 have been superb.
In addition to academic progress, an excellent range of extra-curricular activities, trips, and leadership opportunities are available for our pupils making the Federation a vibrant community in which all are encouraged to develop their talents to the full. This is achieved through charitable work, citizenship projects, sporting activities, culture, and the arts for pupils. These opportunities enhance pupils’ well-being, inquisitiveness, and creativity.
At Cymer Afan Comprehensive School, our personalized approach to teaching and learning is at the heart of all that we do and provides opportunities for our pupils to be successful. It is the responsibility of all our employees to assist the Authority to comply with this Policy. To help employees comply, we have produced a Data Protection Policy Guidance Note (‘the Guidance’) which explains in more detail the requirements of the Legislation. Employees must familiarise themselves with both this Policy and the Guidance and apply their provisions to any processing of personal data. Failure to do so could amount to misconduct, which is a disciplinary matter and could ultimately lead to dismissal. Furthermore, serious breaches of the legislation could also result in personal criminal liability for the staff concerned.
