- Ysgol Bontnewydd serves the village of Bontnewydd and the neighboring rural area, including the villages of Caeathro and Llanfaglan. Pupils also travel from outside the school’s natural catchment area. The school serves a widely spread linguistically and socially diverse community. No effort is spared to ensure that every pupil feels part of the school family. The current school opened in 1976, but education has been provided on the premises for over a century. Use is still occasionally made of the Old School, which accommodates the Nursery School.
