About schools in Conwy

Most of the 65 schools listed in Conwy are primary schools. Its seven secondary schools are where families compare options once a child finishes primary. One school here provides for children with additional needs.

Schools in Conwy are inspected by Estyn. Estyn no longer gives maintained schools a single overall grade, so a recent report reads as a written summary, with a follow-up category noted only where a school has one; each page shows the inspection date and links straight to the full Estyn report. Wales does not publish school-level exam results under an open licence, so these pages lead with the characteristics the Welsh Government does release, such as the share of pupils eligible for free school meals. Treat a report as a starting point and visit before you decide.

Common questions about schools in Conwy

How many schools are in Conwy?
OfferDay lists 65 schools in Conwy, including 50 primary schools and seven secondary schools.
Who inspects schools in Conwy?
Schools in Conwy are inspected by Estyn, the education inspectorate for Wales. Estyn no longer gives maintained schools a single overall grade, so a recent report reads as a written summary, with a follow-up category noted only where a school has one. Each school page shows the inspection date and links to the full Estyn report.
Which are the best schools in Conwy?
OfferDay does not rank schools in Conwy. Wales does not publish school-level exam results under an open licence, so there is no fair basis for a league table. Compare schools on their Estyn reports and the characteristics the Welsh Government publishes, and treat any single measure as a starting point rather than a verdict.
How many towns are in the Conwy local authority?
OfferDay groups the Conwy schools across ten towns, listed in the schools-by-town section on this page. Any school with no town recorded in the national register is listed separately, grouped by phase, so every school in the local authority is reachable.

School details come from the Department for Education's Get Information About Schools register and the Welsh Government's address list of schools. Inspection information comes from Estyn. Information on this page was last updated on 10 July 2026.
