Welcome to Ysgol

Carrog’s website

Choosing a new school is an important decision and I hope

that information provided on this website will help you to

understand more about life at Ysgol Carrog and what our

school can offer your child.

Our school believes in fostering a happy and hardworking

atmosphere based on good relationships between children

and staff. We constantly strive to create a school environ-

ment that is caring and stable. Our school mission statement

is; ‘Learning today for a better tomorrow’.

Our main aim is to provide a caring, friendly and stimulating

environment where each child is treated as an individual and

actively encouraged to do the best that he/she can, socially,

morally and academically. For this to occur there must be a

true partnership between teachers, parents and pupils. The

school belongs to all of us.

The needs of every individual child is met by work, planned

at the level which best suits the ability of the child. This we

endeavour to do within the framework of the National

Curriculum and Foundation Phase.

The staff in our school are dedicated to raising standards in

all areas of the curriculum. We place a strong emphasis on

basic skills (literacy, numeracy and information technology)

and learning to learn.

To conclude, we plan to make your child’s years in our care,

happy, memorable and rewarding. We hope that the sup-

portive links between home and school will thrive and we

look forward to a long and happy liaison.

On behalf of all the Governors of Ysgol Carrog, I would like

to take this opportunity to welcome you to our school.

Ysgol Carrog offers a warm, friendly, fun and inspirational

learning environment for all our children from Nursery to

Year 6. We have high expectations of every pupil based

upon them as an individual. We have also developed a

strong community ethos and pupil voice. Pupils are encour-

aged to try their best and to succeed. They are also encour-

aged to develop into responsible, caring young people that

display good manners and appropriate behaviour within the

school and within the wider community.

The staff in our school are exceptionally dedicated and pro-

vide a high standard of education. The staff undergo regular

training to ensure they are fully up to date with latest initia-

tives in order to support the pupils to the highest standard.

I hope you enjoy browsing our website and find the informa-

tion useful, relevant and interesting. Please feel free to con-

tact school if you would like more information or to arrange

a visit to see our school in action and our busy pupils at

work.

Finally, to conclude, all our staff and Governors are very ap-

proachable to all, encouraging children and parents to be

actively involved in ensuring that our school is a success.

Yours sincerely,

Mr Gordon Hughes
