The Welsh Government has pulled plans to make a major announcement about schools this week. On Tuesday, education minister Lynne Neagle was due to give a 45 minute statement to Senedd members titled "consultation on the school year".

The item has now been withdrawn and delayed until after the recess break for half-term. It is understood that has taken place because the reconfiguration of the school year was part of the cooperation agreement with Plaid Cymru, a deal the party withdrew from on Friday.

The parties entered into the agreement after the 2021 Senedd election and it covered a number of set areas. It was due to end this winter but Plaid leader Rhun ap Iorwerth has opted to end it early citing concerns over new First Minister Vaughan Gething as the reason.
