Croeso i Ysgol Acrefair

Welcome from the Headteacher

It is with great pleasure that I introduce myself as the Headteacher of Ysgol Acrefair. With over 26 years of experience in education across both England and Wales, I am deeply committed to fostering a happy, engaging, and inclusive learning environment where every child can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

I am proud to have contributed to an excellent Estyn inspection at my previous school and am excited to build upon the strong foundations already in place at Ysgol Acrefair. My focus is to ensure that we continue to provide a well-rounded education that prepares our pupils for success in all aspects of their lives.

At Ysgol Acrefair, we are passionate about helping every child grow in self-confidence, develop a growth mindset, and reach their full potential. We believe in nurturing the whole child and equipping each learner with the skills, knowledge, and resilience needed for their next educational chapter—and for life beyond the classroom.

We are extremely fortunate to have a dedicated, caring, and forward-thinking team of staff who work tirelessly to create a vibrant, supportive, and challenging environment. At the heart of our ethos is the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to develop emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially.

Through high expectations, rich learning experiences, and a culture of mutual respect, we aim to foster a community where children and staff alike value tolerance, justice, and self-worth. In doing so, we nurture learners who respect themselves, others, and the world around them.

I look forward to welcoming you to Ysgol Acrefair and sharing in the exciting journey ahead.
