Hello Ray The Admission Records would show dates of birth, date began at that school possibly date left and where to and names of parent or guardian plus address and sometimes reason for leaving also sometimes previous school. I don't think the records are online. Records should be in Gwent Record Office in Merthyr if they have been kept safely. You can e mail the record office and ask if they have the relevant ones . I have always found them helpful.
