We are keen to collaborate with Coleg Llandrillo Cymru as a way of further developing the choices available to learners in Meirionnydd and Dwyfor. We will be retaining and developing our bilingual provision so that learners can continue to study in the language of their choice. This partnership would also open up new possibilities for working with employers in the area.
