About schools in Monmouthshire

Monmouthshire lists 41 schools, most of them primary schools. Its three secondary schools are where families compare options once a child finishes primary. Monmouthshire keeps a three-tier system, so one middle school sits between the primary and secondary stages.

Estyn is the inspectorate for schools in Monmouthshire. 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 Monmouthshire

How many schools does Monmouthshire have?
OfferDay lists 41 schools in Monmouthshire, including 30 primary schools and four other establishments.
Who inspects schools in Monmouthshire?
Schools in Monmouthshire 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.
How are schools in Monmouthshire ranked?
OfferDay does not rank schools in Monmouthshire. 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 Monmouthshire local authority?
OfferDay groups the Monmouthshire schools across five 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 17 July 2026.
