Our New Curriculum Vision

At Ysgol Y Waun and as a cluster of schools in the area, we are passionate about supporting our learners to achieve their full potential, whatever their aspirations and strengths, in a safe environment which respects everybody.

We hope that all learners here will develop the knowledge and skills they will need for the next stage of their lives and education. We will do everything we can to ensure that they leave us as happy, proud, confident and independent individuals who enjoy learning in an ever-changing world.

Everyone’s voice and wellbeing is important at Ysgol Y Waun and it’s a prominent part of the school's ethos. We develop the skills that all learners need to be able to look after themselves, to keep safe, to face and overcome challenges and to enjoy learning.

The village of Chirk and the surrounding communities is a naturally Welsh area steeped in history and we want to celebrate that throughout our work.

We also want to broaden the horizons of all learners to be able to appreciate the diversity and wonder of the world and their place as individuals within it.
