At Llantwit Major School, we firmly believe that people are our greatest asset.

We see ourselves as a school community committed to excellence, creativity and innovation. We encourage participation in a wide range of educational and life enriching activities, celebrating success in many varied ways. The ultimate aim is to help all students prepare to take maximum advantage of life long learning experiences in further education and careers, establishing themselves as responsible members of the community and beyond. By focussing on maintaining high expectations and relationships, fostering a positive ethos, providing a broad and stimulating curriculum and embedding the school at the core of the community, we aim to provide young people with a valuable and fulfilling experience of school.

Dear Parent/Guardian

Coronavirus Update – 31 March 2020

As of the 1 April 2020 Llantwit Major School will be closed. During this period much of our work will be undertaken remotely, outside of the occasions when we will be providing childcare at Ysgol Y Ddraig as part of the HUB 12 model. Please read below as to how contact can be made with the school during this period

School provision for key workers:

Provision Monday 6 April and onwards:
If you require a place for your son/daughter in the Hub 12 provision based in Ysgol Y Ddraig, please apply for your place via the Vale of Glamorgan website:

www.valeofglamorgan.gov.uk/ChildCareHubs

Applications must be made by 4.00 pm every Friday for provision the following week (Monday 7.00 am - Sunday 7.00 pm).

If Hub 12 does not receive any bookings for a particular day, it will be closed to ensure the safety of all, and staff will work remotely.

Provision Wednesday 1 April - Sunday 5 April:

If you require a place in Hub 12 between these dates, please email the school on llantwitmajorhs@valeofglamorgan.gov.uk by 2.00 pm daily if you require a placement for the following day and include the following information:
