We pursue very high standards, not just in the classroom but also beyond
it.
The co-curricular programme is central to what education here is all
about, the ‘other half’. We help pupils to master the basic skills necessary
to reach high levels of performance, both as individuals and team-players.
As in most cathedral schools, the quality of music here is outstanding.
It is our boys and girls who sing Llandaff Cathedral’s choral services day
by day, and the same excellence of musicianship rubs off in school within
a wide range of genres, from classical to rock and pop, chamber music
to jazz. With an enviable record of success in national competitions and
plenty of opportunities to make music on some of the most prestigious
stages in Wales, musicians here have an unparalleled opportunities to
develop their skills.

On the sports field a similar appetite for excellence pervades all we do; this
is the most sports-centric independent day school in Wales, with a very
high
coach:playerratio and a busy, competitive fixture list. Rugby, football,
sevens, cricket, hockey, netball, rounders, rowing, kayaking, climbing and
gym all thrive here. Equally, ambitious participation in public speaking and
debating competitions, challenging drama productions and various genres
of fine art all add to the opportunities for all students to achieve standards
which help them grow in confidence. Termly ‘socials’ in the sixth form, and
attendance at high level events beyond school, help sixth formers develop
vital networking skills.
