St Cyres School is a British co-educational Comprehensive school and Sixth form college located in the town of Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales, 5.2 miles south west of the Welsh capital city, Cardiff. The school offers the Welsh Baccalaureate Qualification, and its notable alumni, including international sportsmen and sportswomen.
The school enrols 1100 pupils between the ages of eleven and eighteen, through years seven to thirteen. The thriving Sixth Form has around 250 students.
Until June 2012, St Cyres School was split over two sites: the larger site at Penarth, and a smaller lower school (years 7 to 9) in the nearby village of Dinas Powys. The school has since been unified and moved into a new site, in the Penarth Learning Community.
Brian Lightman - Former headmaster Brian Lightman led St Cyres School for many years, before embarking on a secondment - subsequently becoming General Secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders.
The school has had three names in its short history: St Cyres Secondary Modern School, St Cyres Comprehensive School, and, now, St Cyres School.
