Llangattock CiW School is situated in a beautiful rural setting at the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park, within walking distance of the Brecon Canal and 1 1/2 miles from the picturesque town of Crickhowell.
“It is a very happy and inclusive community, which nurtures a positive and caring Christian ethos within a climate of trust and mutual respect. The headteacher leads by example and has communicated a clear vision of the school and its future development to pupils, staff, governors and parents. She provides highly effective leadership and strategic direction for the school. All members of staff work closely together to create a supportive whole-school ethos based on highly effective team work.”

LLANGATTOCK C IN W SCHOOL-VISION AND AIMS
Llangattock School will provide a happy, healthy, safe and stimulating environment, where creative and thoughtful learning is encouraged, and effort and achievement are recognised and rewarded. We aim to provide education of the highest possible standard, based on strong, respectful and mutually supportive relationships, within the context of Christian belief and practice.
We will nurture children’s spirituality and have the utmost care for their moral, physical and emotional welfare. We aim to help them become, healthy, confident individuals, ready to lead fulfilling lives as members of society.
They will be encouraged to develop community spirit and become responsible citizens. We will encourage respect for, and understanding of, the faiths and cultures of others.
Children at Llangattock School will be bilingually confident and learn to celebrate their Welsh heritage and culture. We will also encourage them to learn about sustainability and help them to become ethical, informed citizens of Wales and the World, ready for challenges ahead.
The children will develop and apply their literacy, numeracy, creative and technological skills to be equipped to deal with a changing world. Where possible they will learn from first hand, outdoor experiences in both local and wider environments to become enterprising, creative contributors ready to play a full part in life and work.
Our children will be confident, ambitious, capable learners ready to learn throughout their lives, who share responsibility for their goals and achievements. We will promote independence, a desire for learning, insist upon excellence and meet the needs of each individual child, in an inclusive, safe environment.
