Lewis Girls School and Lewis School Pengam

Lewis Girls School - Oakfield St, Ystrad Mynach, Hengoed CF82 7WW

Proposal

The proposal seeks to close Lewis Girls schools and make a regulated alteration to Lewis School Pengam to change from single sex to co-education with effect from September 2025.

The Lewis Girls School site would be retained as a provision to Lewis School Pengam to manage the transition over a number of years. (minimising impact on exam pupils and enabling staff and pupils to be integrated over an appropriate timeframe).
