Llandovery College is pleased to welcome Mr Guy Ayling as its new Warden with effect from 1st April 2012.  Guy joins us from Sedbergh School in Cumbria.

Guy is delighted to be leading a school with one of the finest reputations for excellence in Wales. “Llandovery College has a national reputation for outstanding achievement, a unique environment, a great history and a strong community,” he said. “I am thrilled and honoured to be its new headmaster and look forward to working with staff, parents and pupils in taking the school to the next level.”

For over 160 years, Llandovery College has been one of the foremost schools in Wales. We have combined scholarly excellence with a caring embrace; a respect for tradition with an eagerness to look forward. We are located in a safe, beautiful location where mellow old buildings blend with modern facilities in a wooded campus of 50+ acres surrounded by the Brecon Beacons and at the gateway to the Cambrian Mountains. All this is well and good, but it is the people that count.In all areas of school life, we have dedicated staff who will challenge and inspire your child to be the best they can be. Our very nature means that teaching continues well beyond the classroom. Here, your child has ample opportunity to learn from classmates from across the nation and the globe. Friendships form quickly and they are often forged for life. Our pupils are rightly proud of their school. Thankfully they display no superficial sophistication; rather an appealing honesty.

Many schools today claim to be educating ‘the whole child’ which means that such promises merge from one prospectus and website to another. We will be a disappointment if you are looking for pictures of girls who look like they’ve come straight from a photo shoot or boys who have never scraped mud off their shoes. But, if you are looking for a warm and supportive community that values the soprano as much as the prop forward, where academic success and life-changing experiences are equally valued, and where everyone supports each other, then pick up the phone and we would be delighted to arrange a visit for you.

We are pleased to invite you to visit our school, and truly believe that when you see us in action, you will sense our community and purpose. Staff and pupils will welcome your family into ours.

Please explore the website and feel free to contact us if you would like any further information.
