- As a school, we endeavor to celebrate every child and ensure they reach their full potential during their time here. St Asaph VP Church in Wales Controlled Infant School is situated in the Cathedral city of St Asaph in the beautiful Vale of Clwyd in North Wales. We have a Christian ethos and strong links with our beautiful Cathedral where we hold a monthly service and our Nativity service at Christmas. Our school was founded by Thomas Vowler Short, who was Bishop of St Asaph between 1846 & 1870. He was responsible for establishing two Church schools of which the VP was one, built in 1863 for £1,800. The original infant school was sited in what is now the Cathedral car park. Initially, our school building accepted children aged 7-14 after they had completed their time at the Infant school. The schools were later combined into what is now the VP Infant School with children attending from ages 4-14 and later ages 4-11. In the 1970s it was decided to build a new junior school on the Ashly Court estate and this was opened in 1977 which resulted in the VP School becoming an infant school for ages 3-7. May we take this opportunity to emphasize that you are always welcome to visit the school to discuss any aspect of school life and that ‘my door is always open.’ Security, and your child’s safety, is our priority. Our main security gate remains locked at all times during the school day from 9 am. When closed, access can only be gained by speaking to the school office or Playgroup via an intercom. The gate is monitored at all times by a security camera. If you wish to speak to the Headteacher or a member of staff before 8.50 am, please come to the main door and ring the bell. Nursery parents collecting their child at 11:30 are asked to remain behind the gate. The gate will be opened by a member of the Nursery staff when the children are ready to leave. The main school door and Breakfast Club/Playgroup door are secured by keypad locks and the Nursery/Reception entrance has no means of being opened from outside. View full school
