Welcome to Ty Gwyn Education Centre
Ty Gwyn Education Centre is a secondary age Pupil Referral Unit, located in Aberdare and serving all of Rhondda Cynon Taf.
The small class provision and specialised support for children and young people aged 11-16 is based on high quality teaching and learning and a trauma informed approach to presenting social, emotional and mental health needs.
There are 8 classes across Key Stage 3 and 4, nearly all learners are dually registered with a mainstream school. Learners in Key Stage 3 are always considered for re-integration where there is appropriate evidence this would better meet their needs.
Learners in KS3 follow an integrated, skills based curriculum, combined with some specialist teaching, which fulfills the 4 purposes of the planned new curriculum; to be ambitious and capable, to be enterprising and creative, to be ethical and informed and to be healthy and confident.
