Welcome Marie,
Whereabouts in Wales are you? We are very thin on the ground on the forum.
Can't help with the policy I am afraid as it's not one I have but there will be loads on here who will be able to help.

Hi Marie and welcome to the forum! There's a lot of talk at the moment in the press about the new Welsh curriculum and a big part of that will be Welsh language education..... new.wales.gov.uk/topics/educationandskills/?lang=enI think you need to say that you commit to supporting children's language development in English and Welsh and show how you do this - through dual langauge books, labels and images on your play boxes in both langauges, multilingual written documents for parents etc and through mark making opportunities which encourage children to think in both English and Welsh Hope this helps!
