Cowbridge Comprehensive School

We are a popular and very successful, oversubscribed, co-educational secondary school situated in the market town of Cowbridge in the Vale of Glamorgan. The school is able to trace its roots back to 1608 and we are proud of our history and reputation for excellence. Our long tradition of academic excellence places us as one of the highest performing schools in Wales. As a result we will talk to you about children, our story and the next steps in our journey; we talk and care about children not statistics. The redevelopment of the school and its site was completed in 2010 and provides our students with a truly 21st Century learning environment where each young person is challenged, nurtured and supported to reach his or her full potential. The school serves a large rural area with 10 established feeder primary schools, from which the majority of students at the school have transferred. We also have a significant number of young people joining us from a wide number of additional schools as a result of parental choice.
