About schools in Porth

Porth lists seven schools, most of them primary schools. Its one secondary school is where pupils go on to after primary. Porth keeps a three-tier system, so two middle schools sit between the primary and secondary stages.

Estyn is the inspectorate for schools in Porth. 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.
