Craig-y-Nos School is one of the longest established independent schools in Wales. Founded in 1920 as a boys' preparatory school, it has evolved in more recent years into an independent primary school educating boys and girls from the age of 2 - 11. In 1983 the school moved from its central Swansea location to the delightful rural setting of Clyne Common, at the entrance to the Gower Peninsula and an area of outstanding natural beauty. It now stands on a three acre site on the B4436 between Mayals and Bishopston, approximately five miles west of the city centre.
