In welcoming the decision of Carmarthenshire County County Council's Education and Children'r Scrutiny Committee today to allow Bancffosfelen and Llaneli schools more time to assemble the case for survival Cymdeithas called on the Council to make this a new start, not just a temporary reprieve.

Ffred Ffransis Said:
“We hope the Council will instruct officers now not to just sit on their hands but to actively work with communities to establish how best to develop schools. Communities change and sometimes schools choose to close or have to close but this should be the last resort not the default position. Let this be the start of a new spirit of co-operation in the revival for Welsh speaking communities.”
