Review of Post-16 Education
The Council is currently carrying out a Strategic Review of Post-16 education, which aims to identify a long-term vision for school-based post-16 education in the county.
This follows the recommendation in the Council's recent Estyn inspection of Education Services to 'Work with partners to rapidly develop and implement a model for 16-19 education that is financially viable and sustainable, and meets the needs of all learners, and considers Welsh-medium and ALN provision.'
As part of this review, the Council's Cabinet recently considered a paper outlining the current provision, the challenges associated with this provision, and a number of future options. The paper considered by Cabinet is available below:
The next phase of the work is to carry out engagement on the Council's plans to support the development of a way forward. This has started in the summer term 2025, with engagement sessions for secondary staff and governors. The slides from these sessions are available here: Strategic Review of Post-16 Provision Engagement Events – July 2025 (PDF, 699 KB)
The engagement work will continue into the autumn term, when there will be opportunities for all stakeholders, including learners, to contribute.
