St Illtyd Primary Celebrates School of Sanctuary Award

Monday, 6 July 2026 at 11:27

By Nathan Spackman

St Illtyd Primary School has been officially recognised as a School of Sanctuary, marking its ongoing commitment to welcoming and supporting learners who seek refuge.

The national award celebrates schools that create safe, inclusive environments for children and families affected by displacement or trauma. Staff, pupils and the wider community at St Illtyd have worked for years to embed values of compassion, understanding and solidarity into everyday school life.

Through curriculum projects, whole‑school initiatives and partnerships with local organisations, the school has built a culture where every learner feels valued and supported.

Headteacher and staff say the recognition reflects the collective effort of the school community and its dedication to making Llantwit Major a welcoming place for all.

The School of Sanctuary status is part of a growing movement across Wales to ensure that schools play a leading role in promoting kindness, inclusion and respect for those seeking safety.
