Over the last few weeks, very good progress has been made at both Ysgol Uwchradd Caergybi and Ysgol David Hughes, Menai Bridge, in response to the ongoing RAAC emergency.

Anglesey Council continues to work proactively with both school communities, external contractors, and Welsh Government to implement sustainable and, more importantly, safe solutions.

Ysgol David Hughes (Menai Bridge)

Update: 22 December 2023

• Following the completion of substantial building works, the school has had full access to the first floor of block C and the middle floor of the new block (since 18 December)
• As a result, the art department can return to their usual rooms and maths teachers can move from the main hall and examination room to mainly individual classrooms (with two classes in ‘The Harbour’)
• Remedial work in Block C will begin in early January.

Update: 22 December 2023

• Work on the various block buildings is progressing very well.
• Teaching block A and C will be available to move furniture back on 5 January and 6 January.
• The school will be closed to pupils on 8 January and 9 January to allow teachers to move back to their classrooms and for office staff to relocate their workstations.
• All pupils will return to the school on 10 January.
• Remedial works to the cafeteria are almost complete and this will allow full access.
• The reception is still currently located at the back of the school building (the main reception remains closed)

The county council, Ysgol Uwchradd Caergybi and Ysgol David Hughes would like to thank all staff and pupils for their patience, perseverance and good-will over the last challenging months.
