Welsh-Medium Education Strategy Consultation

CONSULTATION ENDS: 05/08/2009

OVERVIEW

The Welsh Assembly Government are consulting on a National Welsh-Medium Education Strategy.

This draft strategy has been developed in response to the committment in One Wales to 'create a national Welsh-Medium Education Strategy to develop effective provision from nursery through to further and higher education, backed up by an implementation programme.'

This consultation exercise is your opportunity to help shape the agenda for Welsh-Medium Education and Welsh-Language Skills over the next 20 years and beyond. They welcome all your ideas and views, particularly on those aspects where there is no single clear answer to the challenges.
