Trevethin Community School (Welsh: Ysgol Gymunedol Trefddyn) was a non-selective state secondary school in the Pontypool suburb of Penygarn, Wales.
[1] The school—established in 1982 as Trevethin Comprehensive School—was originally housed on two sites, the former Pontypool Girls' Grammar School building and the former Trevethin Secondary Modern School, which is now the Welsh-language school Ysgol Gyfun Gwynllyw.
The school suffered from declining pupil numbers in its last years and closed in the summer of 2007.
Many residents of Trevethin were bitter about the school's closure and fought hard to keep it open, but to no avail.
[citation needed] Trevethin itself is an economically deprived district of Pontypool and this influenced the school's fate.
