In May 2012, I announced a new £400,000 action plan over 4 years to start to improve standards and attainment in Welsh second language education. The main focus of the plan is to achieve higher levels of attainment in Welsh second language by the end of Key Stage 2. The plan also aims to build on the momentum of improved standards at Key Stage 2 by improving learning experiences at transition to Key Stage 3 and progression at Key Stage 4 and outlines actions to review qualifications and assessment.
