I understand that recent threats to Eastern High School and St Illtyd’s R.C. High School have been incredibly distressing for families across Cardiff East.
I’ve been speaking with South Wales Police regularly to raise the serious concerns I’ve heard from local residents.
I am pleased to hear that three people have now been arrested in connection with threats made between March 15, 2026 and March 18, 2026. They remain in police custody.
South Wales Police would like to reassure families that there remains no evidence of any persons attending any of the schools involved posing a threat. The safety of our children remains our top priority.
