Siarter Iaith/Welsh Language Charter

The Welsh Language Charter is a project to encourage the use of Welsh socially in schools in Wales.

As part of the Charter, each individual school completes a baseline exercise to determine current language use before developing an action plan to work towards a bronze, silver or gold award. It encourages participation from every member of the school community - pupils, parents, school governors and the wider community. 

Communication is at the heart of modern life – growing up bilingual meant that children will be developing skills for life.

In September the following school members were appointed as Language Charter Members.
