Plans to transfer Ysgol Gymraeg Treganna to new build premises have taken a major step forward.
Cardiff Council’s Executive will receive a report next week to inform them that no objections were received to the statutory notice to transfer the school as a three form of entry school with nursery into new build premises on Sanatorium Road and to close Ysgol Tan-Yr-Eos with pupils transferring to the enlarged Ysgol Treganna on the new site.
The notice was published on May 9 and the statutory objection period lasted one month.
Officers are now seeking Executive approval to implement the proposal from September 1, 2013.
The proposal was developed to address the increase in demand for Welsh-medium primary places in this part of the city. No existing English-medium provision will be closed or reduced in capacity as a result of this plan.
Executive Member for Education and Lifelong Learning, Cllr Freda Salway, said: “This is a major step forward in our plans to transfer Ysgol Treganna into a brand new, state-of-the-art building.
A new three form of entry school will alleviate the overcrowding issues at the existing schools and provide children with a fit for purpose learning environment.”
