Tondu Primary School

Highlights from Latest Inspection

Tondu Primary School serves the village of Aberkenfig and the surrounding area north of Bridgend. It is located on two sites, which means that the nursery and reception classes are accommodated about a quarter of a mile away from the rest of the school.

There are 227 pupils on roll aged from 3 to 11 years taught across eight classes, including four mixed age classes. The three year rolling average of pupils eligible for free school meals is around 25%, which is above the Wales average of 18%. The school identifies around 28% of pupils as having additional learning needs, which is above the Wales average of 21%.

Just under 4% of pupils come from an ethnic minority background and around 4% speak English as an additional lang...uage. A very few pupils speak Welsh at home. The school's previous inspection was in January 2013 and the headteacher took up her post in January 2018.
