A Culture of High Expectations and the Pursuit of Excellence

We are a happy and successful school with a track record of securing consistently high results across all Key Stages. In February 2018, Olchfa received a truly outstanding report from Estyn, achieving excellent judgements across all measures. This official recognition is part of our assurance to you that the learning environment we provide is of the highest quality.

We have high expectations of our students. We encourage aspirational attitudes, diligence, integrity and enthusiasm. We also believe that a willingness to move beyond the ‘comfort zone’ and embrace new challenges allows young people to realise their ambitions.

“The school is highly successful in creating a culture of high ambition and an inclusive ethos framed around the vision of ‘Dysg, Dawn, Daioni’. High expectations and the importance of respect and tolerance pervade all of the school’s work.” Estyn 2018
