School Update – 20/05/25
Re: Update Incident after school Wednesday 14 May 2025
Good afternoon,
We wanted to update you with some information regarding the incident that happened outside the school on Wednesday 14 May.
As you are aware from Gwent Police social media posts a number of arrests have been made and we continue to work with the police as part of their ongoing investigations.
The learners involved are currently not in school and we have issued them all with the most serious sanction available to Headteachers in line with Welsh Government statutory guidance.
The school continues to be a calm and safe place and we will continue to do everything within our power to ensure that your child has the best possible experiences whilst in our school.
We thank you for your support and understanding.

Stranger Danger
Dear Parent/Carer,
We’ve been informed that a learner has been approached on the way to school this morning by the Premier shop on Nash Road by a man wearing a grey hoodie and grey/green trousers.
The learner is safe and well but we wish to remind learners of the potential dangers a stranger could pose and about their safety to and from school.
Please advise your child not to walk on their own wherever possible and especially if it is dark. If your child feels threatened in any way whilst making their way to or from school (or outside of those times), they should call 999 or contact Gwent Police through their social media platform to inform the police immediately.
The Schoolbeat.cymru website has advice on advising your child about ‘stranger danger’ (and many other topics also) https://schoolbeat.cymru/en/parents/know-what-could-affect-your-child/personal-safety/what-you-need-to-know/stranger-danger/
