Schools in Bangor

Reviewed by the catchment.school editorial team · Last updated 15 March 2026

Bangor in Gwynedd has 2 schools in the catchment.school database. The North Wales cathedral and university city sits on the Menai Strait opposite Anglesey. Gwynedd Council is a Welsh-medium authority and most local schools teach predominantly through the medium of Welsh.

Families considering English-medium education will find the options limited in the immediate area, as Gwynedd's policy strongly favours Welsh-medium provision. Secondary education is available in Bangor itself; families should contact Gwynedd Council directly to understand the language of instruction at each school and the admissions process.
