Ysgol Llandygai, We take pride in that this is a Church school. There is a motivational and exciting environment here with a specific focus on ensuring excellent quality of teaching and learning. The school’s vision is to aim towards achieving excellence. We are extremely fortunate in having a team of dynamic and innovative teachers at the school who work hard to ensure that high standards are achieved using leading strategies. There is obvious co-operation within the school between the teachers, the Governing Body, the parents, without of course forgetting the pupils. The school council and Head Pupils are very willing to express an opinion and regularly self-evaluate to have a positive impact on school life.
Ysgol Llandygai is a happy and welcoming school where every child is motivated to be confident bilingual citizens. We have received national attention in the press for our vision and commitment to supporting the Welsh language within a social context. This website aims to enable you to get to know about this particular school. The incredible opportunities that await your child to equip them to become citizens who possess the key skills and knowledge that they require for the big world will be an eye-opener.
The school is run based on three specific aims namely: ‘Respecting everybody and everything, aiming for the stars and being safe. In addition, we promote specific values monthly that prepare the pupils to work with others within the school and the community. Llandygai is a school that regularly self-evaluates, implementing ideas that break new grounds. We aim to invest in our pupils to aim for the stars in achievements and protect and motivate in a thriving environment.
Our new curriculum will be developed by the education professionals already working in Wales. A network of Pioneer Schools will be leading and shaping the detailed design and development of the new, inclusive, broad, balanced, and challenging curriculum, working with experts to shape the future of learning in Wales. We are a small nation and we must pool our resources and our expertise.
As well as working with the profession, we will work closely with Estyn, the Education Workforce Council, higher education institutions, further education colleges, businesses, parents/carers, children and young people, and local authorities and their regional consortia all of whom have a vital role to play. Alongside this, we will work with our other stakeholders and consult on changes as and when appropriate, including in advance of any legislative proposals being brought forward. My ambition is for our new curriculum to be available by 2018. I believe this timeframe is realistic and achievable and strikes the right balance between pace and ensuring that professional practice is developed to support the introduction of new approaches to learning and teaching.
A curriculum for Wales – a curriculum for life sets out, in broad terms, the steps that we will take to achieve Successful Futures. As we move forward our plans will be refined and revised. Taking the wider financial climate into account we may need to work and think differently to achieve our ambition without losing sight of the prize. We would welcome your feedback to ensure the future success and well-being of every child and young person in Wales who deserve nothing less than world-class learning and teaching.
