Welcome from the Headteacher
It gives me great pleasure to present you with the Dylan Thomas Community School
prospectus. Here, you will be able to read about the school’s aims as well as the vision
and values of the school.
Dylan Thomas Community School is a thriving community focused school that serves
a considerable area in and around Swansea. Our school is a happy, safe and caring
learning environment where all pupils are welcome, valued and respected. The school
recognises and celebrates the achievements of all pupils. I am extremely privileged to be
the headteacher of Dylan Thomas Community School and lead a school that continues to
provide the best level of education for all of our young people.
We aim to instil in our pupils the traditional values that have inspired education in Wales
– respect, a sense of justice and personal responsibility. At the same time, our school
constantly adapts to the demands of an ever changing world. We believe these values
can only be developed in an orderly and settled school environment consequently we
expect the highest standards of politeness, conduct and personal appearance.
We aspire for all of our pupils to leave us with the best qualifications that they are capable
of achieving with the values, to lead successful lives and also with the skills required for
life and employment in global society.
If you have not visited the school, I would invite you to pay us a visit. Alternatively, if it has
been some time since your last visit I would encourage a revisit, you will see a great deal
has changed over the last few years. Please do contact the school and arrange a visit, we
will be happy to make suitable arrangements for you to do so.
We look forward to welcoming you and your children to join the Dylan Thomas family and
to working closely with you over the next few years. Together we can achieve the success
and wellbeing of each and every child.
Yours faithfully
Mr Paul J Davies
Headteacher (Acting)
