Welcome to Ysgol

Caer Drewyn’s

website

Choosing a new school is an important decision and I

hope that information provided on this website will help

you to understand more about life at Ysgol Caer Drewyn

and what our school can offer your child.

Our school believes in fostering a happy and hard work-

ing atmosphere based on good relationships between

children and staff. We constantly strive to create a

school environment that is caring and stable. Our school

mission statement is; ‘Children come first’.

Our main aim is to provide a caring, friendly and stimu-

lating environment where each child is treated as an indi-

vidual and actively encouraged to do the best that

he/she can, socially, morally and academically. For this

to occur there must be a true partnership between

teachers, parents and pupils. The school belongs to all

of us.

The needs of every individual child is met by work,

planned at the level which best suits the ability of the

child. This we endeavour to do within the framework of

the National Curriculum and Foundation Phase.

The staff in our school are dedicated to raising stan-

dards in all areas of the curriculum. We place a strong

emphasis on basic skills (literacy, numeracy and informa-

tion technology) and learning to learn.

To conclude, we plan to make your child’s years in our

care, happy, memorable and rewarding. We hope that

the supportive links between home and school will thrive

and we look forward to a long and happy liaison.
