We operate with one governing body with a subcommittee structure that governs over all three schools. Whilst schools have their own identity, they are all operated through one Executive Headteacher and one governing body. This allows the schools to benefit from economies of scale, shared professional learning and shared pupil learning experiences.

The Western Learning Federation is about creating something that is unique and complements the excellent pedagogy that exists within each school setting. Our vision rightly inspires, but also complements and develops the outstanding innovation and practice currently in place at Riverbank, Tŷ Gwyn and Woodlands.

Working together to grow, learn and achieve is our mission statement that we originated from Welsh Government vision for schools as learning organisations. We have embedded this mission statement into our vision, values and principles and it is the values that have shaped our strategic plan as we move through the decade since federating.
