At Y Bont Faen we are committed to ensuring that all children have equal access to the curriculum to enable them to reach their full potential in spite of any challenges that they meet. As a school, we believe that having emotionally available adults throughout the school is vitally important and that specific learning difficulties must be identified and addressed through targeted interventions to enhance learning opportunities. Support for all pupils is delivered as a result of Professional Learning that is attended by all staff.
