THREE county schools will help shape a new national curriculum for Wales.

Ysgol Dewi Sant, Pembroke School, and Portfield School are among schools working together to design the new curriculum, which will be used from September 2021.

It aims to ensure children and young people are healthy, confident, ambitions, creative and informed.

It also pledges to equip youngsters with the "skills and knowledge they need to thrive in the modern world", help them lead fulfilling lives, and get them ready for work.

Education Secretary Kirsty Williams said: “I am pleased to announce 25 more Pioneer Schools from across Wales who will be at the heart of the process of designing the new curriculum.

"The education workforce is playing a central role in shaping the future of our education system.”

This latest stage in developing the curriculum will look at expressive arts, health and well-being, humanities, languages, literacy and communication, mathematics and numeracy, science and technology.
