Part of 1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Education – in the Senedd at 1:30 pm on 12 July 2017.
Thank you, Janet. Rural schools benefit from the full range of policies we have in place across Wales. In addition, since taking office, I have introduced a new small and rural schools grant worth £2.5 million a year, and, more recently, commenced consultation introducing a presumption against the closure of rural schools.
