Our School Team
Welcome Message from the Executive Headteacher
It gives me great pleasure to write to you as Executive Headteacher of St David's CiW Primary School and to welcome you to what I am sure will be another very busy and exciting year ahead!
Since starting my post as Headteacher at St David's, I have been tremendously impressed by the whole school community, especially the children. Every time I step onto the yard I am welcomed by a sea of inquisitive smiley faces, each desperate to learn and immensely proud of their school.
Our school has a dedicated team that works very hard to reach high standards in everything we do and this is further embedded through our successful relationships with our parents and the wider community. The children are at the heart of every decision we make to ensure that they are happy, confident individuals and that the opportunities we provide for them are relevant to their needs both now and in the future.
Through our engaging curriculum, we ensure that children can foster a passion for learning that will help to develop high aspirations and a lifetime of memories. We believe in ensuring that children receive a well-rounded curriculum; where individual talents can be spotted and nurtured to ensure that all children experience success and reach their full potential.
We look forward to working in close partnership with you throughout the year ahead, to ensure your child develops a love for learning and strong friendships, thus enabling them to be the best they can be. Please may we ask in return for your support in promoting our school’s core values with your child. These values are respect, truth, trust, compassion friendship and responsibility.
I hope that this website will give you as much information as possible about our school, the staff and the many activities that our children enjoy through our curriculum and our extra-curricular activities that you need. It will grow over time as we add more information, but can never replace the first-hand experience of coming to visit us.
I am very excited to lead St David' CiW Primary School into future opportunities and I look forward to the many challenges in the years ahead.
Best wishes,
Mrs Claire Cook

Class Teacher - Wye (Year 5)
I am thrilled to start my teaching career here at St Davids, after completing my PGCE in UWTSD in Swansea. I have always has a passion for working with young people, this started when I began teaching as a Dance and Drama teacher in Stagecoach Performing Arts. After leaving this position and completing my BA undergraduate degree in University of Birmingham in Geography, I always felt like something was missing. So I started working for a start-up company delivering enterprise education workshops in schools across South Wales, which led me to complete my PGCE training. My hobbies outside of school include watching musical theatre, travelling and walking my two dogs on the beach.
