Ysgol Greenhill School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ysgol Greenhill School, or The Greenhill School, is a non-Welsh speaking secondary school in the coastal town of Tenby, Pembrokeshire. With approximately 1400 pupils on roll, it is one of the largest secondary schools in Wales. Since September 1994, the head teacher has been Christopher Noble. The school has gained a high level of achievement academically and in 2001 it achieved the Investors in People award. In its complex it has a sixth form center for post-16 education, a futuristic building which was designed to be energy efficient and environmentally friendly, it was opened in 1999.

Children learn Welsh second language as a compulsory subject up to the end of their GCSE's before being able to continue or choose new subjects if they choose to stay for 6th form.

A new extension to the school has now been completed. The building work meant that there are now new IT suites, new Design and Technology rooms (such as textiles and cooking), renovated art department and new learning support rooms. There has also been a redesign to the ground floor, opening out the area of the school. And some changes to the first floor to the school ready for the new school year (September 2007).
