On behalf of all the pupils, staff and governors, I would like to welcome you to the Llanvihangel Crucorney Primary School website.

 

Situated in the village of Pandy, the school, surrounded by beautiful countryside, is set on a five acre site with nature areas, two grass pitches and a floodlit multi-use court. At Llanvihangel Crucorney Primary School we believe that the primary phase of education is one of the most important in a child’s learning journey and at the centre of their future development.  It is a time when we aim to nurture children and create a passion of lifelong learning.  In leading children on this journey, we pride ourselves on making the learning fun, exciting, enjoyable and authentic to every child.  

As a newly federated primary school with Llanfoist Fawr, at Llanvihangel Crucorney we place great emphasis on developing strong partnerships. These partnerships exist between home, school, community and inter-school. Through working together in an atmosphere of mutual respect and support, we can provide what is best for our children, in order that they may be happy, enriched and fulfil their potential. The federation allows joint events between our pupils and enables staff to share expertise, to allow the school to fully deliver on its mission at all levels and maintain a relentless drive for the pursuit of excellence. These partnerships support our children to ensure that they will grow into valuable and proactive citizens of Llanvihangel Crucorney and the wider community.

 

Learning is at the top of the agenda and we strive to attain high educational standards, but also to develop the ‘whole child’.  All involved at Llanvihangel Crucorney work very hard to make our school a happy and creative place for the children to flourish and grow.  The school is known in the local area for its warm, friendly atmosphere where children feel valued and secure. In the Foundation Phase we deliver child centred experiential learning and this skills based approach is extended into Key Stage 2 provision.  We place importance on developing strong personal and social skills in pupils, so they can get along with each other and recognise the feelings of others. This in turn develops life skills  of working together, cooperation and teamwork.

 

We treat all our children as individuals and additional support is provided for those who benefit from extra help, as well as those who are more able. We are developing our curriculum to be in line with the new Curriculum for Wales, ensuring that our children are ready for their next step of learning and life in the 21^st Century.

 

Thank you for your interest in our school.  We are very proud of all our children and staff.  If you would like to visit the school or would like to ask any questions please telephone for an informal chat.
