You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.197.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:52, 20 August 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Monmouth Comprehensive School''' (((lang-cy|Ysgol Gyfun Trefynwy))) is a comprehensive secondary school for pupils aged 11–18, situated in [[Monmouth]], [[Monmouthshire]], [[Wales]].

==History==
The school was established in 1903 when it was known as '''William Jones Elementary School'''. This sandstone building is at the west end of the site and was built for the Haberdashers Company. This was  probably designed by Henry Stock.  New buildings were built at the end of the war in what has been described as an undemonstrative style. In September 1947 it became the '''Monmouth Secondary Modern School''', before changing to its current name in September 1977. At that time further classroom blocks were built at the north east end of the site.<ref>((cite book|last=Newman|first=John|title=Gwent/Monmouthshire|year=2000|publisher=Yale University Press|pages=680|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=knRf4U60QjcC&q=%22Monmouth+comprehensive+School%22|isbn=9780300096309))</ref>  The school has Monmouth Leisure Centre in its grounds.

==Description==
Currently the school has approximately 1700 students and offers a broad and balanced knowledge-rich curriculum across all Key Stages. ((when|date=May 2012))The school runs an extensive and diverse programme of curriculum enrichment activities and after school clubs, especially in music, drama, science, cookery and physical education.

==Welsh==
The school teaches [[Welsh language|Welsh]] as the subject has been compulsory in Wales since the [[Welsh Language Act 1993|Welsh Language Act of 1993]]. However, in 2009 there were still students being sent to [[John Kyrle High School]] in [[Ross-on-Wye]], England where the Act does not apply. At the same time another bus brought children from Ross to the school where they would learn Welsh.<ref name="book">((cite book|title=Cross-border provision of public services for Wales p.169|year=2009|publisher=Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Welsh Affairs Committee|pages=303|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=o6Tfnb5to34C&q=%22Monmouth+comprehensive+School%22|isbn=9780215539977))</ref>

The school has been recognised for sporting achievement.  Three students were chosen as Olympic Ambassadors and two were [[Olympic Torch]] bearers in 2012.

====Rowing====
[[File:141 Monmouth Comprehensive School.jpg|thumb|right|Rowing club]]
The school runs the Monmouth Comprehensive School Boat Club which is affiliated to [[British Rowing]] (boat code MOC).<ref>((cite web|url=https://www.britishrowing.org/club/monmouth-comprehensive-school-boat-club/|title=Club details|website=British Rowing))</ref> It is the only fully comprehensive school rowing club in England and Wales.

Many students compete in national championships with some gaining international recognition.<ref name="MCSBC">

===Extra curricular clubs and academies===
Monmouth Comprehensive School runs a range of after school clubs and academies aimed at providing students with an opportunity for extended learning. Clubs include [[Horse care|equine academy]], [[fencing]], [[cookery]] and many more.

===Eco-Schools===
Monmouth Comprehensive School is striving to become a more eco-friendly school; the Eco-Council is about to apply for their second green flag.   The [[Eco-Schools]] Committee is an established forum of pupils of all ages, who are trying to improve the environmental aspects of everyday life in Monmouth. It is based around the philosophy of "Learning To Care For Our World".  In 2012, the school held a successful Green Week which helped raise awareness of [[Fairtrade]] and [[recycling]]. Activities that were undertaken included a paper mountain to raise awareness of how much paper is used within the school, an ecotree, a logo competition and many more, all designed to raise awareness of environmental issues within the school.
There are plans to fill a time capsule which will be buried under the Jubilee Oak tree that the school will be receiving soon.  This will give students of the future a chance to see what the school was like in 2012. In addition to this, the school already has an established recycling policy and an effective litter management system.
