School put in special measures
Carmarthen Journal
|May 07, 2025
A RURAL school with around 20 pupils is being placed in special measures, although several aspects of the way it is run were praised.
Inspectors from Welsh Government education body Estyn visited Ysgol y Fro, Carmarthenshire, where they picked up a safeguarding issue and found fault with the governing body.
They also want to raise teachers' expectations to challenge pupils. Their report made five recommendations, and said His Majesty's chief inspector was of the opinion that special measures were required.
Carmarthenshire Council said it and the school accepted the findings.
The Estyn report said the Welsh medium school in Llangyndeyrn, south-east of Carmarthen, has 21 pupils on its roll, 15 of statutory school age.
