Welcome message from Mrs Owen

Idris Davies School 3-18 opened on January, 8th 2018 and is the first English medium school in Wales which offers a through school education for pupils between the ages of 3 and 18. The school was established from the amalgamation of Rhymney Comprehensive School, Abertysswg Primary School and Pontlottyn Primary School. We are based in Rhymney and serve the top end of the Rhymney Valley.
We are based on a large campus with a primary phase and secondary phase building. The primary phase building was purpose built in 2018 with state of the art classrooms and facilities. The building also houses an integrated children’s services centre which hosts a Flying Start provision and wraparound care provider. Our outside areas include a wide range of sporting facilities, an outdoor classroom, an amphitheatre, a vegetable garden, a wood and three ponds.

As a school we strive to ensure that our learners experience success in a nurturing and inclusive environment, to help the children to understand that they make a positive difference to the world in which we all live, and to have high hopes and ambitions for themselves and for other people.

Working together in partnership with learners, parents, carers, staff, governors and the local community, we work hard to provide our learners with the best possible life chances, and to be proud of themselves and their efforts as individuals.

This website gives you a wealth of information with regard to our school but also provides a platform for us to highlight the abundance of achievements of our pupils both inside and outside of school. We are extremely proud of each and every one.

If you would like any further information or would like to arrange a visit to the school please get in touch via the contact section of the website.
