Argoed High School is a mixed, secondary comprehensive, non-denominational secondary school without sixth form situated in the county of Flintshire in north-east Wales. It is a state school that is a member of the connecting classrooms project, which helps the school collaborate with its link schools in Cyprus and Malta. A smaller than average size for a school of its type, the latest Estyn report identifies a student roll of 590 secondary school students, between the ages of 11-16.
The school was first built in 1978 as the first purpose built 11-16 school in the Clwyd County. While it has remained similar throughout its four decades as a school, the school’s time under its third headteacher saw the construction of a new reception and sports hall.
