St Cenydd School

St Cenydd School Sixth Form presents a wealth of opportunity and challenge for pupils who have taken the decision to extend their education beyond the age of 16. Each year sees a substantial proportion of our Year 11 pupils choosing this route. This achievement reflects great credit on our pupils and a dedicated team of staff, who are always willing to teach, support, guide and advise our students on their chosen path.This collaborative effort is demonstrated in a number of ways: through our examination results, which are among the very best in the local authority, through our enrichment programme which encourages our Sixth Form to make a contribution to the rest of the school and the wider community, and through the range of extra-curricular activities where our students are expected to lead as well as to participate. The Welsh Baccalaureate Advanced Skills Challenge Certificate gives the pupils the opportunity to enhance their skills alongside gaining an additional qualification that our current Year 13’s have found very valuable in gaining University offers.Academic performance in the Sixth Form is consistently good. Our teachers are high quality subject specialists who are dynamic and committed to ensuring that pupils achieve their full potential in the subjects they have chosen. We offer access to A Level subjects both at St Cenydd and within the Caerphilly Basin Schools’ Partnership.Life in the Sixth Form is varied, fulfilling, different, as well as demanding.
