Llanilltud Faerdref Primary School is housed in a modern building built in 1974. The school is a mixed 3 to 11 age school situated in Church Village. It is an LEA school and within the area of Rhondda Cynon Taff County Borough Council. The school was originally a junior school, but a new Nursery Unit and internal changes were made in 1990, when the school merged with the old infant school to become a primary school. We benefit from extensive grassed areas surrounding the school with our own football/rugby pitch and there is a school eco garden. There is also a large yard with plenty of outdoor equipment. The Foundation Phase area has a large canopied area with planters and seating. There has been a School Site here since the early 1860's
