About Us

Our aims To develop further the school curriculum to meet the needs of all pupils regardless of ability, aptitude or gender. Whilst we are an English medium school we fully embrace Welsh culture influences throughout the school; encourage global awareness in pupils; continue to improve literacy and numeracy skills. Our pupils are placed in form groups from the start of Year 7 after detailed and careful consultation with our primary colleagues. Guidance is under the care of a Learning Manager for each Year group and over seen by the Deputy Head responsible for Services to Pupils. We pride ourselves on the quality of care, support and guidance given to our pupils at all Key Stages. A Learning Mentor is assigned to each year group to support learning. We constantly review the curriculum that we offer to our children so that we can help our learners follow the most appropriate pathway to match their needs and aptitudes. The school curriculum is organised to provide students with a broad and balanced education and its intention is to maximise the potential of all. The National Curriculum is followed in all subject areas and Bryn Elian is particularly proud of the expertise, experience and commitment of its teaching staff.
