Cyfarthfa High School

Cyfarthfa means "Place of the barking (dog)" in Welsh and the school crest reflects this.

The Upper School moved to a new campus in Cae Mari Dwn in 1981.

The two storey site includes a dedicated science wing, sports hall, a range of general purpose classrooms, a flood-lit Astroturf.

The original lower school was situated in Georgetown, Merthyr Tydfil.

External portable units provided woodwork and language labs.

Cyfarthfa Castle housed the school from 1913 to 1981
