Welsh Medium Education
Welsh medium education (teaching all lessons in the Welsh language) has increased in recent years with more and more families from all kinds of different backgrounds wanting their children to grow up bilingually. The majority of children in the Welsh medium schools in Torfaen come from non-Welsh speaking backgrounds, but learn the language just as effectively as first language Welsh speakers.
A Welsh language homework support line is on hand to help non-Welsh speaking parents and children with homework and help if children or parents are experiencing difficulties in understanding a particular word, phrase or question.
The homework support line is open 3pm-9pm Sunday-Friday. Call 0871 230 0029 or email post@gwaithcartref.com| or
