Ysgol Friars, known in English as Friars School, is a co-educational comprehensive school first established in 1557. Originally a boys’ grammar school, the school became a co-educational comprehensive in the 1970s, moving onto its current site in 1999. As a result, the school can boast of a wide range of high-quality teaching and recreational facilities. With around 1200 pupils aged 11-18, the school is significantly larger than the average secondary school of its type, with a large catchment area across Bangor.

Values and Vision
Ysgol Friars takes great pride in its comprehensive ethos, and works hard to provide a diverse and wide-ranging curriculum accessible to students of all backgrounds and abilities. This includes Welsh language options for pupils, as well as a number of academic and vocational options for older pupils. In addition to this, a number of extra-curricular activities designed to improve and encourage pupil’s personal development are also available.
Estyn Inspection
“In Key Stage 4, the school performs well in indicators that include a wide range of qualifications, especially vocational qualifications. This is mainly the result of a good range of options available to learners. In those indicators that include English and mathematics, the school has made broadly satisfactory progress over the last three years and its performance is now about average when compared with similar schools.”
