Christ College, Brecon is a co-educational, boarding and day independent school, located in the market town of Brecon in mid-Wales. It currently caters for pupils aged 7–18 years. In September 2014 the school extended the age range that it caters for when it welcomed day pupils aged 7–11 into its new Junior section, St Nicholas House. Christ College was founded by Royal Charter in 1541 by King Henry VIII. The Chapel and dining hall date from the 13th century when the site was occupied by a Dominican order Priory. The school has been ranked in the top three of all UK Independent Schools in terms of "Value for Money" by the ''Financial Times'' newspaper. In February 2011, HM's Inspectorate for Education & Training in Wales, Estyn, (equivalent to OFSTED in England) declared Christ College's performance to be "excellent" – the highest grade that can be awarded. In 2014, 95% of GCSE grades were A *-C, with 78% at A *-B grades. With the A-Levels, 79% of results were A *-B, whilst the overall pass rate (A *-E grades) was at 100%. == Houses == There are seven houses in the school, consisting of three senior boys' houses: St David's, Orchard and School; two senior girls' houses: de Winton and Donaldson's (with a sixth form annexe, Bannau); and one Lower School house, Alway House, for boys and girls aged 11–13.
