- Ysgol Trimsaran was founded in 1875 under the headship of Mr. Thomas Sylfan Jones and was situated where the Junior yard is now on the Heol Waunyclun entrance. A separate Infant school was established in the same building in 1895 under the headship of Mrs. M. Jones. In 1955 due to massive overcrowding and a deterioration in the building a brand, shining new Infants school (made of war surplus aluminum) was opened. By 1962 as a result of a large influx into the village from the North East of England the school started an English stream class to run in parallel with the Welsh stream, a system which continued until the Summer term of 2013. As of September 2013, the school is now Welsh medium. A new Junior building was opened in 1968 and the old school was demolished to make way for the new Junior yard. In 1975 a purpose-built Nursery was set up for the Infants which allowed the school to admit children from their third birthday. The Infant and Junior schools were amalgamated in 1989 to form Trimsaran Primary under the headship of Mr. Wynn Jenkins. The current head Mrs. S Owen was appointed in 2010. We moved into our new passive house school in September 2017. The school has the capacity for 240 pupils with 165 pupils currently on roll. The facilities within the school allow for flexibility in teaching methods and approaches as appropriate to the needs of individuals, small groups, or whole classes. The design of the school is such that it offers the children and the wider community good facilities for learning and leisure. All classrooms have an interactive whiteboard and make use of a good stock of Apple MacBook Pros, laptops, and iPads. "Our vision is to provide a happy, caring, and stimulating environment that promotes curiosity, enthusiasm, and respect and where children will recognize and achieve their potential. Each child should feel valued and be proud of their culture and heritage so that they can make the best contribution to society". Throughout your child’s education, we will keep you up to date and informed of progress and development but it is important to remember that you are welcome to see us at any time particularly if you have any concerns or worries. We see the education of every child as being very much a partnership between home and school so it is important to have good communication between teachers and parents. View full school
