Alternative Learning Programme

An exciting partnership between Blaenavon Heritage Voluntary Controlled School (BHVCS) and Llantarnam Grange Arts Centre has been developed to work with Year 5 pupils. This is all about using art and creative studies to explore Blaenavon’s history and heritage. This programme aims to support the development of basic skills (literacy and numeracy) whilst exploring entrepreneurship and developing a keen understanding and awareness of the area’s history. Throughout the delivery there will a number of community exhibitions to promote Year 5’s work.
