Ysgol Gynradd Coedybryn is situated in the centre of the village of Coedybryn, about six miles from Llandysul. It serves the village itself and the surrounding rural area and it is maintained by Ceredigion local authority. The school provides education for pupils between four and 11 years of age. During the inspection, there were 33 pupils on roll. They are taught by two full-time teachers. The school admits full-time pupils to the class at the beginning of the term following their fourth birthday. Most pupils have attended the local cylch meithrin that meets in the school hall. Teaching is mainly through the medium of Welsh. The area is described as one that is neither prosperous nor economically disadvantaged and pupils’ attainment varies when they start school. About 15% of pupils come from homes where Welsh is spoken. There are a few children from an ethnic minority background at the school. Eleven per cent of pupils are entitled to free school meals. This is lower than the percentages for Ceredigion and Wales. Twelve per cent of pupils are on the school’s additional learning needs register, which is lower than the national average (21.2%). Following a period of reorganisation, a new associate headteacher was appointed to the school in September 2010 and she has responsibility for two other schools in the area. She is supported by an assistant headteacher who is also a teacher in the Foundation Phase. The individual school budget per pupil for Ysgol Gynradd Coedybryn in 2012-2013 is £3,767.
