The £7.2 million school opened in September 2005. It was built in response to the growing number of surplus primary school places in Monmouthshire. It replaced three schools: Croesonen and Llwynu Infants and St David's Junior School, which closed at the end of the summer 2005 term. Deri View is equipped with modern facilities and technology, such as IT facilities which include laptops and interactive white boards in all classrooms. Each classroom has its own covered outdoor teaching area so lessons can be taken outside all year round. The school also has netball & basketball courts, a playing field and running track. The school's main entrance is on the eastern side, from Llwynu Lane.
