Dyffryn Taf is the name of a Comprehensive School with both English and Welsh classes in Whitland, Carmarthenshire, Wales, United Kingdom. History Dyffryn Taf was founded in 1896 as a small grammar school, Whitland Grammar School. It changed to a comprehensive school in 1989 and has expanded since then into a large school of approximately 900 pupils today. Nearly 20% of pupils are fluent in Welsh and bilingual education is provided to one form per year group. As of 2007, the latest additions to the school buildings have been a new maths block and an extended gym. A £1.5 million sports hall was added and is used by the school and in the evenings by other groups. 2010 saw a new re-furbished canteen and a new "sweat shop" style gym, full of new equipment. The gym at Dyffryn Taf was used as an example of good practice within a report by the APPG on a fit and healthy childhood.
