Elfed High School is a Mixed Comprehensive
Elfed High School is a mixed comprehensive school, situated on an attractive site in Buckley, Flintshire. The school provides a wide range of educational opportunities for students aged between 11 and 18 years.
The school is maintained by Flintshire County Council and serves the community of Buckley, together with Drury and surrounding villages. The school’s ethos celebrates the rich culture of the area. Welsh is learnt as a second language and used frequently in school life.
The purpose built accommodation was opened in 1954, with spacious corridors and well equipped classrooms. There are excellent facilities for teaching and learning, including computer suites, workshops, theatre and drama studio, a full sized all-weather pitch, football and rugby pitches and an indoor swimming pool.
An Outstanding Learning Community at Elfed
Our students are highly motivated to learn and their behaviour is excellent. We provide for the additional learning needs of our students including the more able and talented. All students are encouraged to do their best and reach their potential. The broad range of courses provides opportunities for students to follow individual learning pathways, working in partnership with other learning settings. Many students take advantage of opportunities to take part in extracurricular activities, including sport, drama, music and the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme.
The support of governors, parents and carers is fundamental to the school’s success. At Elfed High School students, teachers and support staff work together to create an outstanding learning community. We look forward to welcoming you to our school.
