Ysgol Uwchradd Llanfyllin High School is a bilingual secondary school situated in the Mid-Wales town of Llanfyllin. It currently has around 1000 pupils drawn from the town and the surrounding area. About a quarter of the pupils live across the English border in Shropshire.[2]

History

The school building lies on the grounds of the former Llwyn Hall that was demolished. The school was built in the 1950s to replace an earlier building and was considerably extended in the early 1970s. The school completed a £2.2 million extension and remodelling programme in 1998 providing a high standard of accommodation and resources.

Estyn inspection

In 2009, the school took part in an Estyn inspection which reported GCSE examination results as well above the local and national average.
