Ysgol Gynradd Gymunedol Aberteifi was established following the amalgamation of Cardigan Infant. School and Cardigan Junior school in September 2008. The School is located in the center of the market town of Cardigan. Children have admitted to part-time education the term after their third birthday and to full-time education the term following their fourth birthday. The school is a Wesh
Medium Primary School in line with the guidance in ‘Defining schools according to Welsh-medium provision’, Welsh Assembly Government (2007). Refurbishment work to the school building was completed during the 2015 Summer Term. Work completed included the completion of a new corridor to join the infant and junior department, new toilets, new flooring, and new doors, and new windows to some parts of the building.
The school was successful in achieving the third prestigious platinum award from the Eco-Schools program for their dedication and commitment to improving environmental and eco aspects within the school. This was due to the hard work of the school’s Green Council. The school set up the Green School Council to co-ordinate the following aspects: Healthy Schools Scheme, Global Citizenship as well as the Eco-Schools program. Cardigan Primary school is one of the few schools throughout Wales to achieve this award. The following aspects were noted as excellent by the assessors—” the enjoyment and dedication of the school towards the ethos of the Green Flag and in particular the international projects the whole school thematic approach to the curriculum and the outstanding use of the outdoors as a resource for learning. The pupils on the Green School Council are confident and very knowledgeable. The school is litter-free—Grade ‘A’ - well done!”.
We are committed to providing all children with a high-quality inclusive education in a learning environment that promotes the development of all pupils, fostering an understanding of the world in which they live and an interest in their culture, heritage, environment, and the Welsh language in preparation for being lifelong learners.
