Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Glantaf is a Welsh-medium school, which means that all lessons and all conversations within the school should take place in the Welsh language, and the speaking of English is frowned upon (though English lessons are taught mainly though the medium of English, where it is acceptable to speak the language).

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“Shakespeare, with an improved education and in a more enlightened age, might easily have attained the purity and correction of Racine; but nothing leads one to suppose that Racine in a barbarous age would have attained the grandeur, force and nature of Shakespeare.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
