We are very pleased to be able to offer the parents/carers of Llanwern High School the chance to study for GCSEs in English Language and/or GCSE Mathematics.  This will involve a weekly one-hour lesson (as well as some homework, of course!) during the school day, as well as sitting the examinations in June.

There would be no cost for the tuition.  The only expense would be the cost of the exam entry (approximately £20 per qualification) which is subsidised by Newport City Homes (and would not need to be paid until January).

Registration will take place on Monday 9th September.

We are very excited to welcome pupils and parents to our school open evening event on Thursday 19th September between 4.00 – 6.00 pm.

Well done to our year 10 and  11 pupils today  – lots of happy faces.

Thank  you to Chartwell Catering for delivering an excellent event for our to our year 7 and 8 pupils.  Pupils were split into teams of two and competed to see who could make the tastiest dish out of a Thi green curry and a Maxican bean burrito!  Pupils did a taste test and voted for a winning team.  A great experience was had by all.

Year 11 still working hard at Llanwern completing additional qualification.

Well done.

Yesterday pupils competed against 10 other schools in two challenges at the Salters’ Festival of Chemistry in Cardiff University. They beat off stiff competition to come first in the university challenge.

Pupils had a fantastic day and they did the school proud!

Festivals of Chemistry

A minor defect has been identified on site, linked to internal doors.  A dynamic risk assessment has been done and precautionary measures have been put in place by restricting access to one doorway.  Remedial work will be prioritised with the councils property services partners and the relevant contactors over the weekend.

The school remains open as normal on Monday.

Dear Parents, Carers and Friends of Llanwern High School

As Chair of Governors I would like to inform you that Mr King is to step down from the post of Headteacher of Llanwern High School on 31st December 2017 to pursue other career opportunities. As Chair of Governors and on behalf of the Governing Body I would like to offer him my thanks for his hard work and contribution to Hartridge and then Llanwern High School and wish him all the best for the future. From the start of next term, there will be interim arrangements in place, with an acting headteacher, Mr J Wilson, joining the school. These interim arrangements will be for a maximum of two terms and recruitment for a permanent headteacher will take place early in the New Year.

I wish you all a very Happy New Year.

Ann Lewis

Chair of Governors
