Powys County Council is proposing to close Ysgol Bro Cynllaith and earlier this year (March) published a statutory notice formally proposing the change.

During the statutory notice period, 20 objections were received.

On Tuesday, June 10, Cabinet will receive and consider the objection report and will be asked to approve the proposal to close Ysgol Bro Cynllaith from August 31 2025, with pupils to transfer to their nearest schools in Powys
