Ysgol Dyffryn Ogwen ("Ogwen Valley School") is a school in Bethesda in the Ogwen Valley in Gwynedd, North Wales, with around 400 pupils. Some of the buildings date from 1895 when a County School (grammar school) was established here, but the present comprehensive school dates from 1951. An extension to the school was opened by Professor Sir Idris Foster. The motto of the school is "''Bydded goleuni''" ("Let there be light", Gen. 1.3) The school is fed by primary schools in the surrounding villages: Ysgol Llanllechid, Ysgol Pen y Bryn, Ysgol Rhiwlas, Ysgol Tregarth and Ysgol Bodfeurig. The school has an intake of 70-90 pupils per year. Around a quarter of pupils will go on to study A-Levels. ==2006 Estyn Inspection Report== The 2006 Estyn School Report noted: All pupils belong to the white ethnic group. Seventy eight per cent () of pupils come from homes in which Welsh is the main language and 22% from homes in which English is the main language. All pupils come from an economically disadvantaged area. According to the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation 2000, the two most populous wards in the school's catchment area are amongst the 15% most deprived wards in Gwynedd, with one of the two wards amongst the 3% most deprived in Wales in terms of income deprivation. In both wards also, the unemployment rate is double the national figure. Seventeen per cent () of the pupils are registered as entitled to free school meals, which is 5% higher than the county’s average figure of 12%, and 1% higher than the average figure for Wales (16%). In 2006, only 27% of pupils in the year gained A *-C grades in GCSE science, compared to 56% in the county and 48% throughout Wales. In 2006, the percentage gaining five GCSE grades A *-C was 46%, in comparison with 60% in the county and 53% throughout Wales. In 2006, performance in GCSE English was poor, with only 31% of boys gaining grades A *-C. In 2006, 59% of students in the sixth form gained at least two A-C grades at A-level, in comparison with 68% in the county and Wales. Throughout the school years, pupils with special educational needs are challenged appropriately and achieve good standards. However the challenge for more able pupils is more limited. This limits their achievement and subsequently their attainment. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ysgol Dyffryn Ogwen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
