Ysgol Maesteg School
Ysgol Maesteg School is an English language comprehensive school situated in the town of Maesteg in the South Wales Valleys of south-eastern Wales. The former and more commonly used name of the school is Maesteg Comprehensive School, or Ysgol Gyfun Maesteg.
As of September, Maesteg Comprehensive School introduced a mobile phone ban to prevent cyberbullying and changed the uniform.
The school's old site was taken over by the newly established Welsh medium school, Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Llangynwyd, on 3 September 2008 and has recently been downgraded from being a green rated school down 2 spaces to an amber.
The school was rated band 2 after being recently upgraded from band 3 as part of the Welsh governments school banding system, with over 55% of its pupils living in the 20% most deprived areas of Wales. 42% of its students achieved 5 A*-C GCSEs including English or Welsh + Maths in 2010.
