- Create a community of enthusiastic learners whereby children develop skills, knowledge, and understanding so that they become active and respectful members of our ever-changing community, in a happy and secure environment that encourages them to be independent learners on their journey through school. Ysgol Care is a ‘Welsh Medium’ primary school according to the definition in Carmarthenshire County Council’s Language Policy. Welsh is the only teaching language during the Early Years and Key Stage 1 (3 to 7 years old). English is introduced during Key Stage 2 (7 to 11) where the children are educated through the medium of English and Welsh. By the Education Authority’s Bilingual policy, teaching resources of a high standard are provided to ensure that pupils can express themselves fluently and easily, verbally and in writing, in Welsh, and English by the time they leave the school. For children who start school and have no understanding of the Welsh language the following steps are taken: Foundation phase to year 2 – For children to feel settled and secure in the school environment, English is used as appropriate. After the initial settling in period, the Welsh language is introduced gradually through practical activities which include structured oral work. The child is then taught to read, write and speak in Welsh. The class teacher is aware of the child’s use of the English language during this period. Years 3 to 6 – For the children who start school without any knowledge of the Welsh Language there is again an initial settling-in period. Whilst English is used, Welsh is introduced as soon as possible, through oral and practical activities. The pupils are also offered an opportunity to attend Welsh courses at the local authority's Language Unit. It is the responsibility of parents to provide/arrange transport for the daily delivery and collection of their children. Transport for field visits and excursions will be organized by the school, closely adhering to LEA guidelines. View full school
