Ysgol Gymraeg Nant Talwg and Ysgol Gyfun Bro Morgannwg Amalgamation
Consultation on a proposal to create a New 1,361 place all through 3 – 19 Welsh Medium Community School through the amalgamation of Ysgol Gymraeg Nant Talwg and Ysgol Gyfun Bro Morgannwg
The Council proposes to create a new all through 1,361 place school by amalgamating Ysgol Gymraeg Nant Talwg and Ysgol Gyfun Bro Morgannwg. The move would see Ysgol Gymraeg Nant Talwg discontinued and the age range of Ysgol Gyfun Bro Morgannwg extended to provide for children from 3 – 19 from September 2015. The schools are currently federated under a single governing body and Headteacher.
The proposal has been prompted by a request from the Chair of Governors and Headteacher of Ysgol Gyfun Bro Morgannwg for the schools to be amalgamated following a resolution of the full Governing Body in November 2013. The substantive headteacher of Ysgol Gyfun Bro Morgannwg who is also head of the federated school would remain the headteacher of the amalgamated school. The proposal will provide a more efficient and sustainable model of educational delivery and continuity of leadership.
The existing sites of Ysgol Gymraeg Nant Talwg and Ysgol Gyfun Bro Morgannwg will be used for the amalgamated school that will operate over the existing two sites. All children on either school roll would transfer onto the roll of the all through school in September 2015.
The consultation explains the Councils proposal to create a new all through 1,361 place school by amalgamating Ysgol Gymraeg Nant Talwg and Ysgol Gyfun Bro Morgannwg.
This consultation will run from the 24 September 2014 to 12 November 2014.
