Our school places Wales, the Welsh language and culture, and respect for ourselves and others at the core of everything we do. By caring for each other and our environment we will create a civilized and supportive atmosphere that allows every individual within the school community the opportunity to develop to their full potential, and feel comfortable with their personality and identity.

Welsh is the language of the school - the language of lessons, the administrative language, the language used between teachers and pupils and between pupils and themselves. By making the decision to attend Ysgol Gyfun Cwm Rhondda your child will be able to:

• speak two languages and experience two different cultures

• think more flexibly and creatively

• improve their job prospects

• communicate with a wider variety of people

• participate fully in all aspects of community life.
