Ysgol Ger y Llan is a Church in Wales voluntary controlled primary school. The school is situated in the village of Letterston between Haverfordwest and Fishguard in Pembrokeshire. In January 2011, Ysgol Mathry, also a voluntary controlled primary school, was amalgamated with the school and a few additional pupils were received. Most of the pupils who attend the school live in the village and the surrounding rural areas. The school describes the area as one that is neither prosperous nor economically disadvantaged. Twenty-two per cent of pupils are entitled to free school meals, a figure that is higher than the local authority and national averages. The school caters for pupils between three and eleven years of age. There are 147 pupils on the school's roll, including eleven children of nursery age who attend on a part-time basis. The school has identified 27% of pupils as having additional learning needs; a figure that is higher than the local authority and national averages. No pupil holds a statement for special educational needs. Sixteen per cent of pupils come from homes where Welsh is the main language spoken. The school's language policy notes that Welsh is the main medium of teaching in the foundation phase. In key stage 2, pupils are taught through the medium of English and Welsh but more emphasis is placed on Welsh. There are currently no pupils of ethnic minority background at the school. Since the previous inspection in June 2006, the school has experienced changes in leadership and amongst the teaching staff. The school transferred to a new building on the same site in April 2012. The current headteacher has been in post since May 2011. The individual school budget per pupil for Ysgol Ger y Llan in 2011-2012 means that the budget is £3444 per pupil.
