  Dear Parents/Carers,

   

  It most certainly has been a very busy 2024 finished off with our wonderful Christmas celebrations. All of our Christmas shows have been amazing, showcasing, how talented our children and staff are. Don't forget to tune into Radio BBC Wales at 8am on Christmas morning to hear the wonderful concert our Year 6 were part of performing at the Brangwyn Hall.

   

  A big thank you to parents, carers, and Governors for all your support this year, working in partnership is a strength of our school and we thank our wonderful PTA for organising fabulous events we can all enjoy. I am grateful for a very talented committed staff who work so hard, ensuring our children get the best experiences they can. And to our wonderful Sketty Primary Children! It is a privilege to be their Head teacher and I can’t wait to see what they'll get up to in the New Year.

   

   

  I wish you a very Happy Christmas and pray for a peaceful New Year for us all. Please enjoy the festivities and try to rest a little in readiness to do it all again in 2025!!! It's going to be busy!!!!!!! Kind

   

  Regards

  Mrs Bev Phillips

  Headteacher

  Specifically, this will include the following:
  
  The redesignation of 25 Special Teaching Facilities
  Change the specialism of 3 STFs
  The opening of 5 new Special Teaching Facilities and expansion of a further 4
  The closure of 5 Special Teaching Facilities
  These proposals will affect future pupil admissions only - pupils' current placements will remain in place.
