How is the Minister assisting local authorities to fulfil the Welsh Government's aim for them to work in partnership with at least one other local authority on education matters?
We will be working closely with local authorities to determine how best to create a system that supports school-to-school working at a local level as well as considering what will work best to support school-to-school collaboration and networking across local authorities, including local authorities working in partnership with at least one other on education matters.
I have asked Professor Jones and ISOS Partnership (who undertook the original review phase of this work) to continue to engage with and support the work moving forward, particularly focussed on supporting these elements.
