Education through the Medium of Welsh

For parents/carers who prefer their children to be educated through the medium of the Welsh language, the Authority currently provides Welsh-medium Education at two Welsh Primary Schools situated in Cwmbran and Pontypool. These schools cater for demand throughout the County Borough.

 

Nursery provision is catered for at the Nursery Unit attached to Ysgol Gymraeg Cwmbran and at Cylch Meithrin Cwmbran and Ysgol Feithrin Pontypwl.

 

Pupils of secondary-school age are catered for at Ysgol Gyfun Gwynllyw which is situated in Pontypool. This school also has a 6th form.

 

Pupils attending a Welsh medium school will be provided with transport in accordance with the Authority's transport policy.
