It is my pleasure to welcome you to Ysgol Bancffosfelen’s school website! The school first opened its doors on May the 1st, 1877 in the current school building under the name Bancffosfelen Board School. There have been many, many changes over the past 148 years, but the building remains in the village and serves education to pupils in Bancffosfelen, Pontyberem and surrounding villages; Mynyddcerrig, Crwbin.
Our vision in Ysgol Bancffosfelen is to offer education and care of the highest standard, in a happy, caring, active, safe environment, so that all pupils, whatever their ability, reach their full potential.
Choosing the right school for your child is vitally important. Most parents want a good education for their children, but they also want them to be happy and to feel safe in school. In Ysgol Bancffosfelen, I believe we can offer all of these. We pride ourselves on the broad, balanced and full education that we provide, and the high standards of teaching and learning are a credit to the hard work of both the staff and their pupils. We value our pupils and believe that their time in school should be rewarding and fulfilling. Should you choose to send your child to Ysgol Bancffosfelen, I am confident that you will have made the best choice! If you have any queries or concerns, please contact me at the school at any time. I very much look forward to meeting you soon!
Mr. Thomas Gullick
Headteacher
