Ysgol Dinas Brân has won a prestigious national accolade for its sustained commitment to improving the environment for its students, not just in school but also in the wider community.
The school recently received an assessment visit from Catrin Hughes, the awarding officer from Keep Wales tidy, the organisation which runs the Eco-Schools environment education programme in Wales.
And due to the combined team efforts of its governor Howard Sutcliffe, the students involved in the Eco-Council, the support and hard work of a large number of staff from a wide range of departments, the school has been awarded Platinum Eco-schools Status for another two years.
This is the highest accreditation that Keep Wales Tidy can give to a school.
Andrew Wallis, PSE Whole School Coordinator at Ysgol Dinas Brân, said: "This is the ninth time the school has been accredited with Platinum status, which is an exceptional award-winning track record that the school is rightly very proud of.
"The school has a number of exciting plans for the next two years, which will involve the community and outside agencies to further develop our students’ educational opportunities. Da Iawn Ysgol Dinas Brân!”
Catrin Hughes of Keep Wales Tidy told the school: "I am delighted to confirm that you have retained your Platinum Eco-Schools status and wish you every success with future projects. Maintaining the Eco-Schools Platinum status is a fantastic achievement. The school, staff and pupils, should feel proud of their hard work and commitment.”
