Ysgol Bro Idris

Ysgol Bro Idris is an all-through bilingual school serving pupils aged 3 to 16 years, located in Dolgellau, Wales. Opened in September 2017, it is one of the first all-through schools of its kind in North Wales, operating as a single unified school across six sites rather than separate primary and secondary institutions. The school is maintained by Gwynedd local authority and serves the town of Dolgellau and surrounding villages. The curriculum is broad and balanced, meeting the Curriculum for Wales principles, with particular strengths in foundation phase education and effective curriculum progression from primary to secondary stages. The school provides specialized facilities including science laboratories and sports facilities shared across all age groups, allowing younger pupils to benefit from specialist teaching while older pupils serve as mentors. In key stage 4, students have access to a range of academic and occupational qualifications through partnerships with local further education colleges, including subjects such as health and care, engineering, and computer science.
