Leaders at Ysgol Bro Cynllaith work well with all partners and the local community to share their vision to provide a happy, caring, and inclusive school. The headteacher leads with compassion and knows the pupils, staff, and families well. There is a strong team ethos within the school, ensuring that pupils have interesting learning experiences. Most pupils make strong progress in their development of oracy and reading skills in English and Welsh. Staff promote the Welsh language and culture consistently across the school. Pupils’ numeracy and digital skills progress effectively. However, a minority of pupils do not develop their writing skills progressively enough as they move through the school. Teachers create an effective learning environment and provide interesting lessons that capture pupils’ imagination well. In general, teachers do not always ensure that all pupils are challenged fully and given opportunities to develop their independent learning skills in and outside of the classroom. All staff have effective working relationship with pupils which nurtures their well-being successfully. This fosters a supportive and inclusive environment, which contributes well to pupils’ enjoyment of learning. Staff have a sound understanding of the needs of nearly all pupils and adapt provision effectively to support pupils to make progress in skills. Provision for pupils with additional learning needs (ALN) is effective and responds well to their needs. Pupils’ behaviour and attitudes to learning are positive, and they feel proud of their school and its community. On the whole, leaders are secure about the strengths and areas for improvement of the school. However, they do not have a clear focus on pupil progress as part of the monitoring and evaluating process.
