Welsh Independent Schools Council

Independent schools in Wales offer a high quality of education within a framework where the focus is on the development and care of the individual. Pupils are encouraged to develop to their full potential, to participate in a wide range of activities within the school and to contribute to service in the wider community.

"ISC schools are a UK success story and we are proud of their achievements. Our most recent Annual Census gives clear evidence that pupil numbers are holding up despite the economic situation. Heads tell us that parent interest in places remains high. The reasons are clear. According to the OECD PISA study our schools offer the best education globally, and we attract increasing numbers from overseas."
