Highlights from Latest Inspection

Ysgol Y Faenol is in the village of Bodelwyddan, about four miles east of Abergele.

Most pupils live in the village and its outlying area. Families frequently move into and out of the area and, as a result, there is considerable movement into and out of the school. There are currently 154 pupils on roll, including 21 pupils who attend the nursery on a part-time basis.

Pupils are taught in five mixed age classes. Very few pupils speak Welsh as their first language and around 10% are learning English as an additional language. Around 15% of pupils come from ethnic-minority backgrounds and around 22% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is slightly higher than the average for Wales of 19%.

The school h...as identified 26% of pupils as having additional learning needs, which is slightly higher than the national average of 21%. The present headteacher has been in post since January 2008. The school was last inspected in May 2012.
