This is the Cwm Ifor Primary School replacement project, viewed across Caledfryn Way. The main contractor is Kier Western. Work began here, on the SW side of the existing school buildings, in autumn 2011. The £6 million project is being two-thirds funded by the Welsh Government, with Caerphilly County Borough Council funding the remainder. The current Cwm Ifor Primary School building was built in the 1950s. It occupies a scattered site, with an end-to-end distance of more than 200 metres. The more compact replacement school is scheduled to open in September 2012.
