Newport secondaries

[Sparklybutold]

I posted a few weeks back as we are relocating to Newport. We have been offered the 3 following schools

Llanwern High School
Lliswerry High School
Newport high school

Those in the know, any insights?

I wouldn't want to accept any of them, they are pretty much all sink schools. Sorry!

Could you try St Julians, or Bassaleg. There's also StJosephs, the Catholic school. (not a Newport resident so dont have personal knowledge)

Bassaleg has always had a fantastic reputation, st Joseph’s catholic is good and as st Julian’s is in a nice area I imagine it’s good. Sorry I know someone who went to work at liswerry and they were awful, I wouldn’t want to send my child there.

It’s probably not what you want to hear but all three aren’t great. They are all in very different regions of the city so I’d probably go for the nearest if they are your only options. Caerleon and Bassaleg are the best two if they are a possibility? Also St Joseph’s if you are happy with a Catholic school.
