An MS has welcomed a Minister’s commitment to work with the Royal Welsh Show and the National Eisteddfod on reform of the school holiday calendar.
Llŷr Gruffydd, who represents North Wales in the Senedd, had urged the Welsh Government to ensure that two of Wales’s largest festivals weren’t harmed by any possible changes to the school year.
The proposals would have seen the summer break for Welsh school pupils reduced by one week from 2026. That week would have been added to what is currently a one-week half term break in October. According to organisers if pupils and their families did not attend the event because they were in school, the society could lose more than £1m because of reduced gate sales, membership and camping revenue.
“You've said that no final decision will be taken in this Senedd term, but in your statement, you also say that the Government will continue to look at the second proposal in the consultation during the rest of this Senedd term. That was one of the proposals that would have had an impact on the Royal Welsh particularly.
