Ysgol David Hughes is a bilingual comprehensive school with 1,083 pupils between 11 and 18 years old on roll, of which 191 are 16-18 year old students.
This number is slightly lower than at the time of the school's last inspection. It serves the catchment area of south east Anglesey, which is an agricultural and tourism area, in the main, with some light industry. Ten point one per cent (10.
1%) of pupils are eligible for free school meals. This is significantly below the national average of 17.1%.
Twenty per cent (20%) of pupils are on the additional learning needs register, and 2% of pupils have a statement of special educational needs. These figures are below the national averages. Nearly all pupils and student...s are from white ethnic backgrounds.
Most have received their primary education through the medium of Welsh, and 66% of pupils speak Welsh fluently. Forty one per cent (41%) speak Welsh at home. The senior leadership team includes the headteacher and deputy headteachers, a temporary part-time deputy headteacher and four assistant headteachers, two of whom have been appointed temporarily.
The headteacher was appointed in September 2013. The school is currently a pioneer school and is working with the Welsh Government and other schools to proceed with developments linked to the curriculum.

The benchmark quartile compares the performance of one school against others who have similar levels of pupils with free school meals (FSM). FSM is used as a proxy of social deprivation in schools. This allows a comparison of the performance of a school against others who are in the same FSM category, and who might therefore have a similar intake of pupils from deprived backgrounds.
A school in benchmark quartile 1 is in the highest performing 25% of schools with similar levels of free school meals to this school. Therefore, the school's attainment levels are higher than many other schools with similar levels of pupils from deprived backgrounds. A school in benchmark quartile 4 is in the lowest performing 25% of schools with similar levels of free school meals to this school.
Therefore, the school's attainment levels are lower than many other schools with similar levels of pupils from deprived backgrounds.The benchmarks for Welsh are calculated using all schools that have pupils taking Welsh first language qualifications , and are based on the number of entries and do not include Welsh second language qualifications.SchoolFamily average (2016)Wales average (2016)The core subject indicator (CSI) represents the percentage of pupils achieving level 5 or above in English or Welsh (first language), mathematics and science in combination.
