It is my pleasure to welcome you to our school community. At Ysgol Bro Taf, we are dedicated to harnessing the power of education to enrich the lives of our learners and ensure the prosperity of the Pontypridd district, both now and for future generations.
Our goal is simple: to ensure every pupil has the chance to shine. We’re committed to creating a school where everyone feels supported, valued, and encouraged to reach their full potential.
We’ve designed our curriculum to spark curiosity, challenge minds, and open doors to new opportunities. By focusing on exceptional teaching and a love of learning, we aim to nurture aspirations and confidence in every pupil.
Ysgol Bro Taf is built on the values of being brave, respectful, optimistic, trusting, aspirational, and having fun. We see ourselves as ONE community — where everyone works together, celebrates achievements, and grows as leaders. These values shape everything we do, helping us create a school filled with kindness, resilience, and a positive spirit.
I’m excited about the journey ahead and all we’ll achieve together. Thank you for your continued support, and I look forward to building a strong partnership as we help every pupil thrive.
Warmest regards,
Mr Mark Thomas
Headteacher
📢 School Uniform Reminder
From Monday 29th June, all pupils should return to school wearing full school uniform. PE kits should not be worn to school unless advised otherwise.
With temperatures expected to be cooler this week (around 20°C), pupils will be more comfortable in their school uniform. However, we still encourage everyone to come prepared by:
💧 Bringing a water bottle to school every day
🧴 Applying sunscreen before school
🧢 Bringing a hat for outdoor play
Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to welcoming everyone back to school as normal tomorrow.
We can’t wait to welcome our new Year 7 pupils and families to Ysgol Bro Taf! 🙌🏼 🥳
Join us for our Year 6 into Year 7 Induction Information Evening on Tuesday 7th July 2026 — a great opportunity to get prepared, meet key staff, ask questions and feel ready for September 👏🏻 🏫
We look forward to seeing you there! 😃
