Cantonian High School is an English-medium 11-18 community school maintained by Cardiff local authority. It is located in Fairwater and serves the surrounding area in the west of Cardiff, Wales.[3] There are currently more than 800 pupils on roll and the school is continually growing. Although in the past it has often struggled,[4][5][6] it has progressed significantly in recent years,[7] and performed well in its most recent Estyn inspections, earning the title Cardiffs most improved school in Wales Online.[8]

Future plans[]

Cardiff Council is planning to completely rebuild Cantonian High School, to expand the Sixth Form capacity, and to provide a Specialist Resource Base for people with ASC.[9]
