Ysgol Gymraeg Pwll Coch is a Welsh-medium primary school in Leckwith in the community of Canton, Cardiff. ==General== The name 'Pwll Coch' means 'red pool' in Welsh and refers to a pool in the River Ely and a hamlet which grew nearby, close to the modern Tŷ Pwll Coch public house. Tradition states that the pool filled with blood following the Battle of St Fagans in 1648.〔'Schedule of place names: N - R', ''Cardiff Records'': volume 5 (1905), pp. 394-413. URL: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=48205.〕 As a result of recent changes, the area is no longer part of the school's catchment area. The school's current catchment area (from 2013) includes most of Riverside (South Riverside and most of Pontcanna), all of Grangetown, western Butetown, parts of Canton, and a small part of Cathays. The school feeds Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Glantaf. Before 2013, it fed Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Plasmawr. In 2011, about 20% of the pupils came from Welsh-speaking homes where at least one parent or guardian spoke Welsh, and around 80% came from non-Welsh speaking homes. About 19% came from ethnic minority backgrounds.〔 This is a significant increase from 4.3% in 2003.〔(Equality Impact Assessment: Lansdowne proposal options 1 and 2 ), Cardiff Council, August 2009.〕 The Estyn report on the school in 2011 noted that both its current performance and its prospects for improvement were 'good'.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ysgol Gymraeg Pwll Coch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
