Ysgol Dinas Bran in Denbighshire has been awarded the British Council’s prestigious International School Award in recognition of its work to bring the world into the classroom.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the award, which celebrates the achievements of schools that do exceptional work in global education. 

Bringing an international dimension into the curriculum is at the heart of the British Council’s work with schools, so that young people gain the cultural understanding and skills they need for life and work in today’s world.

At the recent 2025 award ceremony local MP Becky Gittins met Andy Wallis from Ysgol Dinas Bran to congratulate him on the school’s achievement.

She said: “Huge congratulations to Ysgol Dinas Bran for everything they have done to earn this prestigious award.

“The International School Award encourages and support schools to embed an international ethos and a whole school approach to international work. It also encourages collaboration with several partner schools on curriculum-based work and year round international activity, as well as providing a real focus on involving the local community.

“It was a pleasure to learn more about what the school has been doing to bring a real international dimension to its children’s education.”
