About Us

At Cwm Clydach Primary School, we believe that every family is valued as an integral part of our community.   

We pride ourselves on creating a nurturing and safe environment in which our children are challenged to grow as persevering, confident and unique individuals showing readiness to become lifelong learners. We develop our learners to be both physically healthy and emotionally secure through embedded trauma informed practices and our whole school approach to wellbeing. We encourage optimism by celebrating ambition, remembering that mistakes are proof that we are trying.  

For us, success means that our children believe in reaching their full potential, whilst always showing respect, kindness and honesty, valuing and understanding the differences across Wales and the world.
