Significant Locations Around The School
Llwyd Canteen Llwyd Canteen is now the only area available for students and teachers to buy food and drinks. The canteen serves both hot and cold food and has a variety of vending machines so that students may purchase food even when the canteen is not open. The canteen is dependent on the school's internal debit card system, with students topping up their accounts in Llwyd and Usk blocks via simple ATMs.
Sixth Form Study Area (Formerly Usk Canteen) The 6th Form has expanded to 300 students and funds from the Welsh Assembly Government have helped the school build a new 6th Form Study Centre, which opened in September 2009. This has a number of uses but its primary use is as an additional study area for the school's Sixth Form. However, it is also used as an exam hall and as a classroom. The Sixth Form Area is located in Usk Block and is the only part of school that younger students are denied access to. The Sixth Form Area contains a common room, a class room, two offices and toilets. The area also includes a garden.
Learning Resource Centre The Learning Resource Centre has two purposes, it is a library and a computer room that the entire school can access at break and lunch times. Teachers can book the area for their classes at all times with the exception of 1st Period where the area is strictly for Sixth Form use only. At all other times any student may use the facilities, but during break and lunch times, Sixth Form take priority over all other year groups.

Famous quotes containing the words significant and/or school:
“Priests and physicians should never look one another in the face. They have no common ground, nor is there any to mediate between them. When the one comes, the other goes. They could not come together without laughter, or a significant silence, for the one’s profession is a satire on the other’s, and either’s success would be the other’s failure.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“And so they have left us feeling tired and old.
They never cared for school anyway.
And they have left us with the things pinned on the bulletin board.
And the night, the endless, muggy night that is invading our school.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
