Duffryn High School has been proud to serve both the local and wider community since first opening in 1959. Situated near the vibrant city of Newport, the natural beauty of the Bristol Channel and set in its own extensive grounds, we are a successful and growing school with over 1200 students, 200 of which are studying in our Sixth Form.

We are ambitious for all of our students, who are encouraged to pursue the highest academic, personal and social achievements. We believe such aims can only be accomplished in an inspiring, comfortable and happy environment underpinned by an inclusive culture sustained by dignity, courtesy and consideration for others.

‘Learning and Respect’ lies at the very heart of all we strive for so that we can achieve the associated benefits for  students, staff and all those who form our vast family at Duffryn High School. Our school is full of very talented students and staff and we are justifiably proud that no student left school without formal qualification in the last academic year. We aim to create a student experience that goes far beyond the ordinary, and we look forward to working with you to best prepare our young people for life in the 21st century.

Duffryn High School is a friendly, welcoming school with quality teaching and learning at the heart of everything we do. Welcome to our website which will give you a taste of the varied and exciting experiences which await our children every day.
