Ysgol Tycroes School

Our school is a predominantly English-medium primary school. This means that the teaching is delivered through the medium of English, and Welsh is taught as a second language. The children also hear Welsh spoken incidentally and are encouraged to respond bilingually wherever possible. The best way to find out about our school is to visit us – come and see us in action and meet the staff and children. If you have any further queries, then please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Our school is continually evolving and striving to provide the best education possible for all the children in our care, and this ensures that they are always involved in exciting and enriching experiences. After all, children only get one chance at primary education and so at Ysgol Tycroes we are dedicated to making sure it is the best chance!
