WQ89984 (e) Tabled on 30/11/2023

Will the Minister provide an update on work by the Welsh Government to reform the school day?

Answered by Minister for Education and the Welsh Language | Answered on 08/12/2023

The Welsh Government continues to consider the structure of the school day in the context of wider education policies and reform.

There are no proposals around the structure of the school day contained in the Consultation on the School Year, which was published on 21 November 2023. It is therefore important that the two are not conflated.

This work is being carried out in collaboration with Sian Gwenllian, the Plaid Cymru Designated Member, as part of the Co-operation Agreement between the Welsh Government and Plaid Cymru.
